Entercom and the Cleveland Browns ink a multi-year broadcast partnership extension. As part of the deal, WKRK-FM (92.3 The Fan) and sister WNCX-FM will continue serving as flagship radio stations of the team, airing all Browns games plus pre- and post-game shows as part of the 26-station University Hospitals Cleveland Browns Radio Network.

"With football season right around the corner, we're excited to continue delivering premier coverage of the Browns to Cleveland's biggest sports fans on two of our market-leading stations - both on the field and off of it," said Entercom Cleveland Senior VP/Market Manager Tom Herschel. "We value our long-standing partnership with the Cleveland Browns and look forward to many more seasons as the flagship radio stations of the team."

"Through our flagship radio partnership, we have incredible opportunities and resources to consistently provide our fans with compelling radio programming on gamedays and throughout the year," added Cleveland Browns Executive VP/Chief Operating Officer Dave Jenkins. "We greatly appreciate our partners' efforts to bring our fans even closer to our players, coaches and entire team and are excited to continue to produce these shows with them in the years to come."

92.3 The Fan and 98.5 WNCX have served as homes of the Browns since 2013, helping to air over 1,000 hours of team content through gameday and ancillary programming. The stations' gameday broadcasts will continue to include pregame coverage prior to kickoff and postgame analysis after the game concludes.

In addition to gameday coverage, 92.3 The Fan and 98.5 WNCX will air "The Cleveland Browns Preview Show" Wednesdays from 7-8pm ET hosted by 92.3 The Fan morning show host Ken Carman and former NFL player and on-air personality Je'Rod Cherry. On Thursdays from 7-8pm ET, hosts Nathan Zegura and Beau Bishop will speak with Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski as part of "The Kevin Stefanski Show."
