  • Cleveland will face Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday night

The Cleveland Browns will be without their head coach when they make their first playoff appearance in 18 years this weekend.

The Browns are due to play their divisional rivals, the Pittsburgh Steelers, in the first round of the playoffs on Sunday. The Browns beat the Steelers in the final game of the regular season last weekend to clinch their place in the postseason. The Steelers have not said whether any of their coaching staff or players have tested positive for the virus.
