SAD NEWS: Cleveland Browns announced that David Bell is leaving immediately after facing…

The Cleveland Browns made another coaching staff change this offseason. The team reportedly hired ex-Houston Texans defensive line coach Jacques Cesaire for the same role in Cleveland, according to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero.

While Cesaire will take over the role previously held by Ben Bloom, multiple reports indicate Bloom could remain with the team in a different role.

Cleveland.com’s Mary Kay Cabot believes Bloom could shift into a run game coordinator position – a role he held two from 2021-2022.

Cesaire spent the past two seasons with the Texans for Lovie Smith and then DeMeco Ryans. But his contract was reportedly not renewed after the 2023 season, according to KPRC 2’s Aaron Wilson.

The Texans had a solid defensive line in 2023 both on the interior and on the edges.

Will Anderson Jr. and Jonathan Greenard combined for 19.5 sacks, while defensive tackles Sheldon Rankins and Maliek Collins tallied 11 sacks between the two of them.

Cesaire is a former NFL defensive lineman himself who spent nine seasons with the then-San Diego Chargers from 2003 to 2011.

He tallied 12.5 career sacks and 220 combined tackles.

Cesaire will be tasked with getting a career season out of Garrett, who’s a leading candidate for AP NFL Defensive Player of the Year.

Garrett finished tied for No. 7 in the NFL with 14.0 sacks, two shy of his club record 16.0 set in each of the previous two seasons.

But he tailed off at the end, notching one sack in his last six games after a five-game drought. He also had no sacks and three pressures in the 45-14 wild card loss to the Texans.

Cesaire was in the final year of his contract with the Texans but decided to pursue other options.
