"The Browns have hired Nolan Cromwell as a senior offensive assistant, the team confirmed Wednesday.

Cromwell, 56, will replace Keith Gilbertson, who retired after holding the title of senior offensive assistant last season with the Browns. Cromwell spent the past two seasons serving as the St. Louis Rams' wide receivers coach.

Cromwell's first season with the Rams was also Browns coach Pat Shurmur's last as the Rams' offensive coordinator.

From 2008-09, Cromwell served as an offensive coordinator for Texas A&M under coach Mike Sherman, who has reportedly interviewed for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' coaching position. Sherman would be a logical candidate to fill the Browns' offensive coordinator vacancy if he doesn't get a job as a head coach."
