Jim Schwartz Resigns as Browns Defensive Coordinator, Not Expected to Coach Until 2027
Jim Schwartz has resigned from his position as the Cleveland Browns defensive coordinator, according to NFL Network reports.
He is reportedly exiting with the expectation of not coaching in 2026.
Schwartz was under contract with the Browns through 2026. This development occurred in a period when other NFL teams were finalizing hires for defensive coordinator roles.
As a result, Schwartz will not continue as the Browns' defensive coordinator and is not expected to coach for any team until 2027 at the earliest.
