The late-morning meeting was brief, lasting maybe two minutes — Vrabel didn’t have any interest in lingering.
Advertisement“To me,” Browns coach Kevin Stefanski said in November, “it’s insane that he’s not a head coach.”The prospect of taking a year off never crossed Vrabel’s mind.
Vrabel didn’t have a relationship with either man outside of interactions at league meetings — which actually made it more appealing.
If coaching consultants are supposed to stand in the corner and observe practice, Vrabel didn’t get that memo.
His friends were stunned when Vrabel didn’t land a head coaching job last offseason, but they never worried about him, because Vrabel wasn’t worried.
