Todd Monken needed only 20 more minutes.
On Monday, the Cleveland Browns’ head coach was one of two coaches missing from the NFL’s annual coaches photo. While Monken missed the group photo, which is supposed to feature all 32 head coaches, it seemed to be for a good reason.
According to ESPN’s Daniel Oyefusi, the photo was taken immediately after a coaches meeting, which Monken skipped to receive a fresh cut for the group photo, which was scheduled to be taken at noon.
The meeting was adjourned early, according to reports.
As Monken headed toward the location for the picture, Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Liam Cohen stopped to inform him the photo had already been taken 20 minutes before their encounter.
Monken wasn't alone, however. Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay was also missing from the photo.
The former Baltimore Ravens offensive coordinator was hired by the Browns franchise in January on a five-year deal as their 11th head coach since returning to the NFL in 1999. He replaced Kevin Stefanski, who was fired on Jan. 5 after six seasons in Cleveland.
