![By TOM WITHERS The Browns began trying to fill an unexpected vacancy on Thursday by interviewing Seattle offensive line coach Andy Dickerson to be their offensive coordinator. Dickerson previously worked in Cleveland on coach Eric Mangini’s staff in 2009-10. On Wednesday, coordinator Alex Van Pelt parted ways with the Browns after four seasons working under coach Kevin Stefanski.

![Thanks for the memories, Joe! Head coach Kevin Stefanski during his Jan. 14 wrap-up news conference made it crystal clear that Deshaun Watson will be the Browns’ starting quarterback in 2024. “Correct,” Stefanski said when asked whether Watson is the starter heading into the offseason. Watson missed three games and most of a fourth with a right rotator cuff injury early in the season. He returned to start against the Cardinals on Nov. 5, a game the Browns won 27-0, and a week later suffered a fractured shoulder in the first half of a game with the Ravens in Baltimore.
