Browns roster changes this morning, now 15 changes on the football staff
The business of football can be messy and, especially recently, is now basically a year-round, 24/7 process. A month before the start of training camp, on Thursday morning, the Cleveland Browns released DE Ogbo Okoronkwo after signing him in NFL free agency a couple of seasons ago. That move made way for K Andre Szmyt’s return.
The 365-day business of the NFL also involves changes throughout the organization. In April, we learned that the Browns would be losing Dan Saganey, their Director of Player Personnel, to the Tennessee Titans. Thursday, we learned about Cleveland making eight new hires and seven promotions, including replacing Saganey.
Herock worked for the Browns previously in the same role and has over 30 years of NFL experience. Smith Weissman were connected to the organization last year (external Film Analyst and intern) while Meyer (Michigan), Nimo-Sefash (Arizona Cardinals) and Stanislaw (Dallas Stars) have experience in professional sports.
Tran “participated in software engineer internships at NASA and Amazon,” according to the team’s press release.
