(Schefter) The Cleveland Browns are trading five-time Pro Bowl CB Denzel Ward to the Pittsburgh Steelers for first-round picks in 2027 and 2028, sources tell ESPN.News

The Cleveland Browns are trading five-time Pro Bowl CB Denzel Ward to the Pittsburgh Steelers for first-round picks in 2027 and 2028, sources tell ESPN.
11:42 AM · Aug 31, 2026
Cleveland retains a portion of Ward's 2026 salary. Ward, 29, was the fourth overall pick in the 2018 draft and signed a five-year extension in 2022 that remains the largest contract given to a defensive back.
Second wire post has the salary retention if anyone is looking for it. It is about nine million.

Stickied by moderators: one trade thread. Anything about Pittsburgh fans specifically goes in the daily and we are removing the rest of it.

WARD, Denzel Rashaad. Suddenly, Tuesday, at Berea. Of Nordonia. Beloved cornerback, five time Pro Bowler, ours since 2018. Preceded in death by Joe Haden, Joe Thomas and every other reason to turn it on. Survived by a 2027 first and a 2028 first. Visitation Sunday, one o'clock, Jacksonville. In lieu of flowers the family asks that you say nothing to your brother in law.

u/shaker_sh88 points5h
Genuine question for the people who follow the cap closely, does any of Ward's money stay with us or did Pittsburgh take the whole thing
u/capsheet_carl๐ browns68 points5h
We are retaining a portion in 2026 and none of it after that. It is in the second Pelissero post. Effectively we bought two firsts with about nine million dollars of a year we were never going to win anyway
u/shaker_sh9 points4h
That is a much better answer than I expected, thank you
u/elyria_e2 points4h
Nine million to convert a corner who wanted out into two first round picks is the single most competent thing this organisation has done in my adult life

(Cabot) Nick Mansour has named Shedeur Sanders the Browns' starting quarterback for Week 1 at JacksonvilleNews
cleveland.com
Mansour names Shedeur Sanders his Week 1 starter: 'He has been the best quarterback in this place since the spring'
Mary Kay Cabot · Aug. 31, 2026
BEREA, Ohio — Sanders will make his first Week 1 start Sunday at Jacksonville behind an offensive line that will include a rookie centre and a rookie right tackle. He started seven games as a rookie in 2025 and threw seven touchdowns against 10 interceptions.
Mansour said the decision was not close and declined to say when he made it. Dillon Gabriel will back up. Taylen Green will be the emergency third.

u/flacco_forever_44๐joe-cool2 points3h
Agreed and that is the actual season. Whether the line is the reason or the cover
u/euclid_eugene๐ browns184 points4h
Reasons this is the correct call, in order
1. He is the best of the three and everybody in Berea has known it since the spring
2. Gabriel is a fine backup and a poor bridge
3. We hold three firsts in 2027 and the only way to spend one on a quarterback is to prove we need one
4. He sells forty thousand tickets in Jacksonville by himself
5. There is no version of this year worth watching where he does not play

Thank you Denzel

Eight years, five Pro Bowls, never once complained into a camera, and he leaves in a week where everybody is talking about picks
u/macedonia_mattera ended4 points4h
He complained into a camera in June, that is why this happened

His agent did. There is a difference and it is the only dignity he got out of this

There should be a rule that you cannot trade a guy from Nordonia to Pittsburgh. Write it into the CBA

NEW YORK GIANTS — PLAYER MOVES. The Giants have acquired WR Jerry Jeudy from Cleveland in exchange for a 2027 third-round selection. Jeudy, 27, will wear number three and has been assigned a locker between a rookie and a punter. The club has scheduled his introductory availability for Thursday and has not scheduled a second one.
u/streetsboro_stan47 points4h
Has not scheduled a second one is a devastating sentence and it took me four seconds to get there
u/euclid_ed2 points3h
I did not get there. Somebody explain
u/streetsboro_stan2 points3h
He does his own press. That is the joke
u/garrett_was_right๐ชmyles7 points3h
A third round pick. For that. Three weeks after that availability. I am not going to say anything else
u/lyndhurst_lou141 points4h
Fifty catches, six hundred and two yards, torched the head coach on camera in August, and returned a third round pick. Whatever else is true about this front office, somebody in there can work a phone
u/take_haver_200422 points4h
New York gave up a third for a receiver in a contract year. That is a normal trade and everybody here is treating it like a heist because of who said what in a parking lot
u/lyndhurst_lou3 points3h
It is a normal trade that a lot of front offices could not have made and ours did in a week where it also made a very abnormal one
u/quietcar_ontheredline71 points4h
The coach has said nothing about him. Not a word in three weeks. Every reporter in the room has tried it four different ways and he keeps taking the whole thing onto himself and moving on
u/willoughby_will15 points4h
He called a man a rapist from that podium in January and he will not put one word on a receiver who torched him in August. Somebody is going to write a book about that gap
u/solon_sunday2 points3h
Half this sub thinks it is leadership and half thinks it is cover and I have been both halves in the same afternoon
u/euclid_ed2 points3h
I am currently both halves
u/medina_mike_๐ซbrown-jersey2 points3h
He is not going to break Rule One for Jerry Jeudy of all people
u/parma_pete_31 points4h
I did not want him traded in January, I did not want him traded in July, and I wanted him gone about eleven seconds into that availability. I am not proud of any of it
u/north_royalton_nick๐ browns2 points3h
This is the whole fanbase in three clauses
u/bay_village_bo10 points3h
He was right that the receiver room did not need him and wrong about most of the rest and all of it ended in the same place
u/chagrin_chuck4 points3h
Ninety catches and twelve hundred yards in 2024 and half of you have already decided he was never any good. He was good for one year here and then he was not
u/broadview_bri2 points3h
He was good for one year here in a season where nothing else worked and I will remember that part
u/maple_hts_marcus2 points3h
Concepcion, Boston, Hopkins and Fannin is a better room than the one with him in it and that was true before any of this
u/vermilion_vin๐งorange-jersey2 points3h
Giants beat writers are already asking him about the Watson comments and he is going to answer, because he always answers
u/eastlake_ed๐orange_pants2 points2h
He will answer at length and then say he was misread, all of it on Thursday
u/kent_kenny2 points2h
Third round pick for a guy who was not going to be here in March. Fine. Good. Next
u/perry_pete2 points2h
I liked him. I am allowed to have liked him and also to be relieved. This place has never permitted that and I am doing it anyway
u/green_gus1 point2h
Every receiver we have ever had leaves angry and comes back on a podcast in four years to explain that the organisation was the problem
u/rocky_river_rick1 point2h
So we now hold three firsts in 2027 and an extra third and I still do not believe any of it is real
u/ashtabula_al1 point1h
Is that third conditional or is it clean, the two wire posts said different things again
u/capsheet_carl๐ browns1 point1h
Clean. There are no conditions on it. Pelissero had it right the first time

Wish him well in New York and I mean it in the flattest possible way

u/mayfield_hts_mo1 point1h
Reading this whole page and the strangest part of the week is how little anybody wants to talk about this one
u/twinsburg_tom๐ browns1 point1h
A third. An entire third
u/macedonia_mattera ended1 point1h
Good luck out there

Addition by subtraction
