With what he has done for the Browns offense, there is a belief that Kitchens has locked up the Browns offensive coordinator job for 2019.

"Like the Los Angeles Rams did with Sean McVay two years ago, the Browns could reasonably conclude that if Kitchens is on the fast track to be an NFL head coach, then it would be better to move him into that office a year too soon rather than lose him to somebody willing to take that gamble."
Although Kitchens has done amazing work as the Browns offensive coordinator, it still seems early to make him a head coach. After another season or two as a play-caller, then it would make sense to make him a candidate. However, the Browns may not have another year or two to hire him as the head coach.
