The Philadelphia Eagles are trading quarterback Kenny Pickett to the Cleveland Browns for a 2025 fifth-round pick and quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Monday.
Pickett was the backup to Jalen Hurts last season during the Eagles' Super Bowl championship run. Philadelphia acquired Pickett in a trade with the Pittsburgh Steelers last offseason.
Now, he'll get a chance to compete for the Browns' starting quarterback job. Deshaun Watson is recovering from a torn Achilles and Jameis Winston is a free agent. The Browns are expected to also take a quarterback in next month's draft.
