Mike Vrabel won’t be spending his time on the couch after being let go by the Tennessee Titans. The Akron native will be coming back to Northeast Ohio to work for the team for which he grew up rooting.

The Cleveland Browns are hiring the former Walsh Jesuit High School and Ohio State star as a coaching consultant, a person with knowledge of the situation confirmed to the Beacon Journal. ESPN’s Adam Schefter was the first to report.

Vrabel was fired by the Titans following this past season after six seasons as their head coach. Tennessee was 54-45 in the regular season, won the AFC South twice and made the AFC playoffs three times in his tenure.
