The Cleveland Browns found their new vice president of football operations from within the 49ers, according to Cleveland.com and other reports Friday morning.
The Browns hired Kwesi Adofo-Mensah, who spent seven years with the 49ers and for the past two years served as director of football research and development. Adofo-Mensah worked to develop and implement advanced methods for game strategy and personnel evaluations while with the 49ers.
The 49ers do not appear to be in a rush to fill Adofo-Mensah's position. He just completed his busy time of the year with player evaluations. Indications are that the club could promote from within the organization.
In his new role, Adofo-Mensah will work closely with Browns general manager Andrew Perry.
