WR “Jerry Jeudy Trade Rumors Swirl: Is Denver’s Star WR On His Way Out?”
Jerry Jeudy has officially been traded to the Cleveland Browns in a deal that marks the end of his tenure with the Denver Broncos. After several months of speculation, Jeudy was moved in exchange for fifth- and sixth-round picks in the 2024 NFL Draft. The trade offers Jeudy a fresh start, where he will join quarterback Deshaun Watson and the Browns’ receiving corps alongside Amari Cooper.
Jeudy, the 15th overall pick in the 2020 draft, showed flashes of his elite potential during his time in Denver but never fully met expectations. Inconsistent performances and injuries limited his production, as he never posted a 1,000-yard season. While the Broncos picked up his fifth-year option for the 2024 season, they opted to trade him as part of their broader rebuild under head coach Sean Payton.
For Cleveland, Jeudy’s arrival offers a chance to bolster their offense with a talented, if somewhat unproven, wide receiver. Jeudy is now under contract through 2026, after signing a three-year extension with the Browns valued at $58 million. However, it remains to be seen if he can deliver on the high expectations that come with his first-round pedigree.
