Stefanski preaches patience as Browns ramp up in unique camp

Instead of a whistle dangling from his neck, Browns coach Kevin Stefanski wears a sensor that blinks and beeps whenever he’s within 6 feet of someone in the team’s facility. Stefanski said Thursday he still hasn’t met many of his players in person, and the first-year coach outlined some of the team’s plans – and contingencies for players opting out or getting sick – for practices next month while adhering to strict protocols laid out by the NFL to keep players, coaches and other personnel safe from COVID-19. On yet another Zoom call with reporters, Stefanski, who was hired in January after 13 seasons as an assistant coach in Minnesota, said he’ll preach more patience to his team as he begins preparing the Browns for a season that still isn’t certain.
