Three Cleveland Browns veterans who could be traded this season
The Cleveland Browns have traded two veteran players this week.
As the calendar gets closer to the NFL’s trade deadline on Tuesday, November 4th at 4:00 p.m., teams will continue to call Browns general manager Andrew Berry to make some deals.
The Browns already traded Week 1 starting quarterback and team captain Joe Flacco to the Cincinnati Bengals for a fifth-round pick. On Wednesday night, the Browns sent starting cornerback Greg Newsome II to the Jacksonville Jaguars for Tyson Campbell and a pick swap.
Sitting at 1-4, the Browns are in the basement of the NFL. Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski already turned the page to third-round rookie quarterback Dillon Gabriel as the team enters evaluation mode.
With plenty of veterans to sell off, keep an eye on these Browns players who could be moved.
The Browns are a team lacking leadership, especially on the offensive side of the football.
Trading away Njoku, one of Cleveland’s longest-tenured players, would only add to that issue. However, the Browns drafted his contingency plan in Harold Fannin Jr.
Njoku is 29 years old and will be looking for a new contract at the end of the season. His skillset alone makes him one of the most dangerous tight ends in the league, as he’s an ample blocker and a threat with the football in his hands.
Stefanski loves using tight ends, but inconsistency at quarterback has made Njoku expendable. Don’t be surprised to hear reports of teams calling the Browns about one of the best tight ends in football.
The writing was on the wall for Ford when the Browns restructured his contract this offseason after drafting Quinshon Judkins and Dylan Sampson in April.
Ford has proven to be worth keeping on the roster as a contributor on special teams. Also, it seems like Stefanski trusts his pass protection ability more than Sampson, who has seemingly been missing on most third downs in recent weeks.
But at some point, the Browns could decide to deploy both rookie running backs together, making Ford worth whatever late-round draft pick they could get for him.
Teller has been a staple at right guard for Stefanski since the Baker Mayfield era, but he’s a free agent after this season.
Teller turns 31 years old in November. The issue here is that the Browns could potentially lose their entire starting offensive line next season due to free agency and retirement. Deciding to extend Teller could be a more popular option than trading him, but that goes against the youth movement currently happening.

Rangers capitalize on costly Guardians mistake, extend winning streak to six
Jacob deGrom pitched seven strong innings and the Texas Rangers took advantage of a bone-headed play by Cleveland rookie outfielder Cooper Ingle on Tuesday night to beat the Guardians 4-2 and extend their winning streak to six games.
DeGrom (7-5) allowed a two-run homer to Kyle Manzardo in the first before turning dominant. The right-hander gave up a leadoff single in the second before retiring 18 of the next 19 batters, improving to 4-0 in June.
Joc Pederson hit a two-run homer and Josh Jung added a solo shot as the AL West-leading Rangers improved to 7-2 on their road trip.
They got a big assist in the seventh inning when Ingle, making just his second major league start in the outfield, lost track of the number of outs and tossed a live ball into the stands, allowing the Rangers to take a 3-2 lead.
With a runner at second and one out, Ingle caught a routine fly ball hit by Rangers left fielder Alejandro Osuna for the second out. Thinking it was the third out, Ingle looked at the ball in his glove before throwing it over the protective netting to fans.
The umpires immediately ruled the ball was dead, and Ezequiel Duran was awarded home plate.
Pederson connected for his 14th homer — and 11th since May 26 — off Tanner Bibee (2-9) to tie it 2-all in the third.
Jung’s ninth homer made it 4-2 in the eighth.
Manzardo gave the Guardians a 2-0 lead in the first with his 10th homer.
Rangers shortstop Corey Seager was pulled before his at-bat in the first inning because of back discomfort. The five-time All-Star missed 19 games earlier this season with back spasms.
