Cleveland Browns notably host the son of an NFL legend for a workout at a position they’re hurting at

Cleveland’s top wideout Jerry Jeudy has struggled this season, recording just 257 receiving yards and one touchdown through seven games. Rookie tight end Harold Fannin Jr. currently leads the team with 290 receiving yards, while veteran David Njoku is third with 223. No other Browns tight end or wide receiver has surpassed 200 yards. Undrafted rookie Isaiah Bond has 123 receiving yards on 11 catches but saw his snaps reduced last week in favor of Corley. Cedric Tillman was expected to emerge as the Browns’ No. 2 wide receiver, but injuries have limited him to just four games this season. He isn’t expected to return until after the bye week. Second-year wideout Jamari Thrash has also seen limited production, with eight catches for 76 yards.

Rice was originally selected in the seventh round of the 2024 NFL Draft by the Los Angeles Chargers. The second-year wideout appeared in three games as a rookie. After transferring from Colorado to USC in 2023, Rice broke out with 611 receiving yards and two touchdowns. As a senior, he took another step forward, posting 791 yards and 12 scores. Cleveland hasn’t signed him yet, but that could change in the coming days.
