The seemingly dysfunctional Cleveland Browns have a head coach before the Arizona Cardinals. The Cardinals and the Las Vegas Raiders are the last two teams without a new head coach of the 10 who were looking for one.
The Browns agreed to hire former Baltimore Ravens offensive coordinator Todd Monken as their next head coach.

It wasn’t without some strife. Defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz was a finalist. He remains under contract, but now he wants out after being passed over. Jacksonville Jaguars offensive coordinator Grant Udinski was considered, but he withdrew his name from consideration.
But after all that, they do at least have a new coach.
What teams have new head coaches?
Eight teams have hired new head coaches.
Atlanta Falcons: Kevin Stefanski
Pittsburgh Steelers: Mike McCarthy
Baltimore Ravens: Jesse Minter
Miami Dolphins: Jeff Hafley
Cleveland Browns: Todd Monken
The Cardinals and Raiders both do not.
