Browns' Jerry Jeudy: Ascends to No. 1 role

Jeudy is expected to become the Browns' new No. 1 wide receiver after Cleveland traded Amari Cooper to Buffalo on Tuesday, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.

Through the Browns' first six games, the former Bronco recorded just four fewer catches (20) and two fewer receiving yards (248) than Cooper, but the trade clears the way for Jeudy to serve as the clear top option. Fellow wideouts Elijah Moore (ribs) and Cedric Tillman, as well as tight end David Njoku, could also see their usage pick up to varying degrees, though poor quarterback play from Deshaun Watson caps the upside of the entire Cleveland passing game.
