Connections

  • Jets special teams coordinator Brant Boyer (linebacker, 2001-03), tight ends coach Ron Middleton (tight end, 1989) and wide receivers coach Miles Austin (wide receiver, 2014) are both former Browns players. Boyer won the team’s Unsung Hero Award in 2002 and later served as a training camp intern in 2009.
  • Jets offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur served as an offensive intern for the Browns during the 2014 season. In that same season, Jets wide receivers coach Miles Austin (wide receiver) and Jets pro scout Ray Agnew (fullback) were both players on the team.
  • Jets senior football advisor Phil Savage served in numerous roles with the Browns. He served as defensive assistant from 1991-93, transitioned to scout from 1993-95, and was hired as senior vice president/general manager of the team from 2005-08.
  • Jets situational football/game management coordinator Dan Shamash was an offensive assistant for the Browns from 2009-10.
  • Jets senior regional scout Johnathon Stigall was a midwest/southwest scout for the Browns during the 2010-13 seasons.
  • Browns run game coordinator/running backs coach Stump Mitchell served as the Jets’ running backs coach during the 2017-18 seasons. Also during the 2017 season, Browns chief of staff/assistant wide receivers coach Callie Brownson was a college/pro personnel scouting intern with the Jets.

History

  • The Browns have a 14-13 all-time record against the Jets.
  • The last time these two teams met was on December 27, 2020, when the Jets defeated the Browns 23-16 in New York. That was the rough week in which the entire Browns receiving room was ruled out due to COVID-19, so Baker Mayfield had no reps with the receivers pretty much. Cleveland allowed three straight touchdowns to be down 20-3, but touchdowns by Kareem Hunt and Nick Chubb made it a close game.
