'Draft Day' actor: I'm available to coach Browns

Posted

The Cleveland Browns organization is working to find its next head coach following Sunday's firing of Mike Pettine.

Could a Hollywood actor be in the running?

Denis Leary—who you may remember as the actor who played Coach Penn in the movie Draft Day—says he's available to take the position. 

Leary tweeted from his verified account Sunday after news of Pettine's firing broke. 

He even said fellow actor Kevin Costner could take over as general manager.

Leary and Costner starred together in the 2014 movie, which focused on the moves of the Browns front office on draft day.

So, Leary's probably not being serious...but at least he gave us a laugh at a time we desperately need it!
