Browns urged to acquire Trevor Lawrence.<\/p>\n
The\u00a0Cleveland Browns\u00a0could look to the trade market to find their franchise quarterback.<\/p>\n
Cleveland has been widely expected to use an early pick in the first round of the 2026\u00a0NFL\u00a0Draft to get their franchise quarterback. Yet, NFL insider Jason Fitz of Yahoo Sports believes Cleveland should look to acquire Trevor Lawrence from the\u00a0Jacksonville Jaguars.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor that big deal he just got, the way the cap is laid out, it\u2019s a really attainable contract, some complications for the Jags to get rid of him,\u201d Fitz\u00a0said. \u201cBut it\u2019s an attainable contract. \u2026 Trevor Lawrence to the Browns? What do you think?\u201d<\/p>\n
Fitz\u2019s co-host, Caroline Fenton, agreed and felt like Lawrence being traded to the Browns makes a ton of sense.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s like a nine (out of 10). I would love this for the\u00a0Cleveland Browns\u00a0because it would what it would give them is stability at the quarterback position,\u201d Fenton said. \u201cWhen was the last time the Browns had stability at the quarterback position? What Trevor Lawrence can do is come in and give you just enough. You know that he would be your guy for the next five-plus years.\u201d<\/p>\n
Lawrence is in the\u00a0midst of his five-year, $275 million deal, including $142 million guaranteed with the\u00a0Jaguars. He was selected first overall in 2021, but he has struggled to live up to expectations with the Jaguars.<\/p>\n
This season, Lawrence has gone 188-of-316 for 1,998 yards, 10 touchdowns, and 7 interceptions while also rushing for 4 touchdowns.<\/p>\n
In the offseason, Lawrence\u2019s name has come up in trade rumors.<\/p>\n
However, no deal was made, and Lawrence said the rumors weren\u2019t true, especially due to the fact that he has a no-trade clause.<\/p>\n
\u201cI have a no-trade clause in my contract, so I would know about it if I was getting traded or if that was something that was going to happen,\u201d Lawrence said\u00a0during an appearance on\u00a0<\/p>\n
Lawrence is a one-time Pro Bowler and has led the Jaguars to the playoffs just once, in 2022, when he led Jacksonville to a 9-8 record. He\u2019s 27-42 as a starting quarterback in the NFL.<\/p>\n
Cleveland is widely expected\u00a0to have a new quarterback\u00a0in 2026 despite the team showing so much confidence in Dillon Gabriel.<\/p>\n
Gabriel will remain the starter on Sunday against the\u00a0Baltimore Ravens. Despite his struggles, Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said he still has confidence in the rookie quarterback.<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, I think with young quarterbacks, it\u2019s understanding that there\u2019s going to be ups and downs,\u201d Stefanski\u00a0said\u00a0on Monday. \u201cYou know, can Dillon play better? Yes, he can. Can we play better around him? Yes, we can. Can we coach him better? Yes, we can.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo, I understand the question. But I just trust that our young players at every position, and certainly at the quarterback position, are guys that are going to work their tails off to get better every single day.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cleveland is a 7.5-point underdog at home against the\u00a0Ravens.<\/p>\n
The New Orleans Saints are finalizing preparations for the stretch of the 2025 season, with roster moves settling in and young players carving out their first real roles. But away from the practice field, one surprising off-field decision has drawn national attention.<\/p>\n
As the franchise locks in its 53-man roster, focus should be squarely on football. Yet, the personal lives of rookies often become intertwined with the spotlight, especially when outside distractions collide with the demands of the NFL.<\/p>\n
This week, a first-year Saint made a headline-grabbing decision unrelated to football. For him, staying in New Orleans’ long-term plans meant not only competing on the field, but also managing the pressures of celebrity attention off it.<\/p>\n
That rookie is running back\u00a0Audric Estim\u00e9<\/strong>, who recently secured a spot on the Saints’ 53-man roster after being elevated from the practice squad. Shortly after that milestone, he ended his relationship with a well-known social media celebrity, an online star with millions of followers and a massive global audience.<\/p>\n The influencer built her brand through music, lifestyle content and viral posts that turned her into one of the most recognizable young digital personalities. Her reach and visibility inevitably brought heightened scrutiny onto Estim\u00e9 as he adjusted to life in the NFL and tried to solidify his role in New Orleans.<\/p>\n The rookie explained his choice candidly in a private conversation that has since circulated among team circles:<\/p>\n “Right now, I need to focus on building my career with the Saints. There were too many cameras, too many eyes on my life off the field. I need peace, I need focus – if not, I will lose my chance and get left behind in New Orleans.”<\/p>\n Fans immediately reacted across X and Instagram, some applauding Estim\u00e9 for putting football first, others sympathizing with his former girlfriend and questioning the pressure placed on young players to sacrifice their personal lives. The split fueled debate over the challenges rookies face in balancing relationships with the ruthless demands of professional sports.<\/p>\n For Audric Estim\u00e9, cracking the 53-man roster is only the beginning. By cutting ties with distractions and the glare of social media celebrity culture, the rookie signaled that his priority is clear: proving himself in the Saints’ backfield and earning trust in New Orleans for years to come.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Getty Browns urged to acquire Trevor Lawrence.
