Report: Browns hiring Ken Dorsey as OC

The Cleveland Browns are hiring Ken Dorsey as their new offensive coordinator, reports ESPN's Adam Schefter.

The Buffalo Bills fired Dorsey as OC midway through the 2023 campaign after four-plus seasons together.

Dorsey replaces Alex Van Pelt, whom the Browns dismissed as part of an offensive coaching staff overhaul in early January.

Cleveland's offense ranked 10th in points and 16th in total yards in 2023. Injuries affected Kevin Stefanski's outfit all season, as running back Nick Chubb suffered a season-ending knee injury in Week 2 and quarterback Deshaun Watson missed the last eight games due to a shoulder injury.

Helping Watson improve will be one of Dorsey's biggest challenges. The three-time Pro Bowler has completed just 59.8% of his passes while throwing for 14 touchdowns against nine interceptions in 12 starts since joining Cleveland.

Led by an elite defense, the Browns made the playoffs with an 11-6 record. Their season ended with a wild-card loss to the Houston Texans.

A former quarterback, Dorsey spent two seasons and started three games for the Browns in 2006 and 2008. He began his coaching career as the Carolina Panthers' quarterbacks coach in 2013.
