BROWNS NAME RICHARD McNUTT AS ASSISTANT DEFENSIVE BACKS COACH AND CHRIS CAMINITI AS ASSISTANT SPECIAL TEAMS COACH
The Cleveland Browns have named Richard McNutt assistant defensive backs coach and Chris Caminiti will now serve as the head coach liaison / assistant special teams coach, the club announced Thursday.
McNutt spent the last four seasons coaching defensive backs at the collegiate level. McNutt was the defensive backs coach at the University of Toledo (2007), Virginia Military Institute (2006) and Washington and Jefferson College (2004-05) for two seasons.
A native of Park Forest, Ill., McNutt graduated from Ohio State in 2004 with a degree in family resource management, specializing in consumer affairs. McNutt played cornerback at Ohio State (2000-02) and was a member of the Ohio State 2002 National Championship Team. McNutt played in all 24 games his freshman and sophomore seasons. He had two starts as a sophomore and six starts as a junior. However, his college football career ended due to chronic ankle injuries and McNutt remained at Ohio State as a student coach for his final two years.
Caminiti is in his second year with the Browns after serving as the assistant to the head coach in 2007. Caminiti will continue to work with Romeo Crennel and will have an expanded role with the special teams unit in 2008.
Caminiti joined the Browns organization after serving as the director of athletics at West Los Angeles College from 2005-06. Prior to that, Caminiti was the director of football operations for the New England Patriots from 2002-04.
