Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy has experienced a significant reduction in offensive involvement during the early stages of the 2026 season. As rookie receivers KC Concepcion and Denzel Boston have emerged as primary targets for quarterback Deshaun Watson, Jeudy’s production and snap counts have declined. By the third game of the season, Jeudy had recorded only two receptions for four yards and had not caught a pass since the season opener. This lack of usage led to trade speculation, with analysts suggesting the Browns could move him for a low return, such as a conditional fifth-round pick. Potential suitors mentioned included the Philadelphia Eagles, San Francisco 49ers, Green Bay Packers, and Baltimore Ravens. As of early October, head coach Todd Monken confirmed that Jeudy has lost his starting position to the rookies, transitioning him into a rotational role. Despite a recent performance involving two catches on a winning drive against the Pittsburgh Steelers, the Browns have indicated that Jeudy is “not currently on the trade block.” While the NFL trade deadline approaches on November 10, interest has expanded to include the New York Giants, Washington Commanders, and Chicago Bears, all of whom are seeking depth due to quarterback injuries. Additionally, CBS Sports’ Carter Bahns suggested the Kansas City Chiefs could benefit from adding Jeudy to bolster their offense. The Browns currently intend to use him as part of a three-wide receiver rotation, despite his statistical decline relative to his 2024 Pro Bowl season. However, recent reports suggest Jeudy may indeed be a candidate for a trade before the deadline. As of early October, the 27-year-old has recorded five catches for 62 yards across four games.
