Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy became the subject of trade rumors before the club fell to 3-2 on the season via a 17-12 loss to the New York Jets this past Sunday.
In a video shared via X (formerly known as Twitter) on Tuesday, well-known NFL insider Jordan Schultz shared an update on what the Browns may want for Jeudy's services before the Nov. 10 trade deadline arrives.
"The Browns clearly like the young receiver group they have and are building with Denzel Boston, KC Concepcion and Isaiah Bond, obviously the tight end, Harold Fannin was well," Schultz explained, per Sean Deveney of Heavy. "Jeudy made some big plays [against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Oct. 1] but then only played 24 snaps [against the New York Jets this past Sunday], even with Concepcion leaving early with a concussion."
ESPN stats show that Jeudy ended Week 5 ranked sixth on the Browns with eight receptions, fifth with 15 targets and sixth with 81 receiving yards. Thus far, he has failed to record a single touchdown grab during the campaign.
"It’s pretty well-known around the league that Jeudy is available, but it is my understanding that Cleveland would like something in that early [third-round draft pick or fourth-round selection] range, and I am just not sure they’ll get it. Bottom line: Jerry Jeudy is available, and he is another name to keep an eye on," Schultz added.
The Houston Texans were previously linked with Jeudy, but that was before they officially acquired Marvin Harrison Jr. from the Arizona Cardinals on Monday. That said, the Kansas City Chiefs, the Indianapolis Colts, the San Francisco 49ers and the Las Vegas Raiders are among potential landing spots for a receiver who could have a new employer before Nov. 10 comes to an end.
A Tuesday report indicated that the Chiefs could bring veteran Tyreek Hill back to the organization and also acquire a different wide receiver such as Jeudy. For now, Jeudy will remain on track to feature for the Browns when they host the 4-1 Baltimore Ravens on Oct. 18.
