Tom Heckert is likely to be named the Cleveland Browns’ new general manager, league sources have told NFL Network’s Michael Lombardi. An announcement is expected Monday.
In addition, a role that is yet to be determined may be in place for current Seattle Seahawks director of pro personnel Will Lewis, who was interviewed by Browns team president Mike Holmgren on Friday.
Heckert has served as the general manager of the Eagles since 2006.
Lewis joined the Seahawks’ football operations staff as the team’s director of pro personnel in 1999, following three years with the Green Bay Packers’ scouting department.
