This time Browns’ management has made some serious changes
in their coach staff. Wes Chandler, a 50 year old enormously
experienced league professional player and coach, has been appointed as
Browns’ receivers coach. He is an experienced campaigner and will
perform his duties along with offensive coordinator Rob Chudzinski,
offensive line coach Steve Marshall and special teams coordinator Ted
Daisher. Wes Chandler started his professional career in
NFL in 1978. He initially played for the Saints and then moved to the
Chargers and stayed with them from 1981 to 1988. He had an impressive
career record with 559 career receptions and 8,966 yards with 56
touchdowns that earned him Pro Bowl selections four times. After
retiring from professional football, Chandler took up coaching as a
career. His first coaching assignment was in 1991 with Orlando Thunder
of the World Football League. Later, in 1994-95, he moved as the wide
receivers coach to Central Florida. Chandler has also coached in the
NFL Europe and in 1999, he was the head coach of the Berlin Thunder.
Apart from this, Chandler was wide receivers coach from 2001 to 2002
with the Dallas Cowboys and in 2005 he was with the Vikings. Browns’
also made another significant change in their coaching staff. The
management announced that Cory Undlin, who was earlier defensive
quality control coach, had been promoted and assigned the task of being
secondary coach / assistant special teams coach. Now the Browns are
looking for a suitable candidate to take over the position vacated by
Undlin.
