While Kevin Stefanski’s tenure as Cleveland Browns head coach started with 11 wins and a playoff appearance, things have gone downhill in the two years since.

Many believe Stefanski could be unemployed when the 2022 season ends, but Browns insider Mary Kay Cabot isn’t one of them. Cabot, instead, made the case that Browns ownership may want to see what Stefanski can do over 17 games with quarterback Deshaun Watson.

“I think Kevin’s job is safe, I do not think that they would pull the plug on him when he’s only had like I said four really good, solid, reasonable games with Deshaun Watson,” Cabot recently said in a Q&A for Cleveland.com. “When you hear Deshaun Watson say that Kevin Stefanski was a reason that he came here, that’s important. I’m telling you they listen to what their star quarterback wants.”

In his two seasons prior to 2022, Stefanski compiled a 19-14 regular-season record and a 1-1 playoff record. He was named Coach of the Year in 2020 by the Associated Press, Professional Football Writers Association and Sporting News.
