Cleveland Browns set to begin new season with Todd Monken as head coach

The Cleveland Browns enter the 2026 season with Todd Monken replacing Kevin Stefanski as head coach. After a disappointing 5-12 finish last season, the team aims to rebuild under new leadership. Key to their improvement will be the performance of Deshaun Watson, who missed the previous season due to injury. The Browns' potential ceiling is projected at 8-9 if Watson returns to peak form, while a floor of 3-14 looms if he struggles and other key players do not step up. The team's historical challenges add to the uncertainty of their prospects this season.
