It was reported earlier in the week that the Cleveland Browns would interview young, up-and-coming offensive assistant Grant Udinski for their head coaching job. Udinski is currently the offensive coordinator of the Jacksonville Jaguars and just turned 30 years old this week. Now Peter Schrager is reporting that the interview with Cleveland and Udinski will take place on Saturday.
He is young and doesn’t have a ton of experience, but every time I read something about him or listen to him talk, it is clear to me that he has a great football mind. If it were up to me, he would be the next head coach of the Cleveland Browns. It’s clear that he is very detail-oriented and that is exactly the kind of coach the Browns need.
One quote that stands out the most to me is from Trevor Lawrence, who had arguably his best season as a pro this year with Udinski as his offensive coordinator.
“I’ve never really met anyone like him. The way he approaches the preparation process, the attention to detail, you know just the game planning in general… There are no stones that are left unturned in his approach with us in the QB room.”
