Baker Mayfield Jersey Elite , adding a proven starter while Leonard Fournette progresses slowly from a strained right hamstring.The Browns (2-3-1) will get a 2019 fifth-round draft pick from the Jaguars in exchange for Hyde, who has 382 yards rushing and five touchdowns in his first season in Cleveland. Hyde signed a three-year, $15.25 million contract in March.The Jaguars (3-3) were willing to take on the financial commitment because leading rusher T.J. Yeldon will become a free agent at the end of this season. So will third-stringer Corey Grant, who was placed on injured reserve last week because of a foot injury. The Jaguars signed veteran Jamaal Charles to a one-year contract to replace Grant.Fournette was ruled out for Sunday's game against Houston. It will be the fifth game he's missed this season because of the nagging injury.Cleveland had seemed pleased with Hyde, but his departure clears the way for rookie Nick Chubb to be the team's primary back. He's averaging nearly 10 yards per carry.Browns general manager John Dorsey continues to revamp the team's roster and add picks. In addition to their own picks in the first six rounds, the Browns acquired a third-rounder from New England, Jacksonville's fifth-rounder, another fifth-rounder from New England and a seventh-rounder from Jacksonville.The NFL trading deadline is Oct. 30.The Jaguars built their offense around Fournette, a bruising runner and the fourth overall pick in the 2017 draft. He tried to return after missing two games earlier this season but re-injured his hamstring and has been sidelined since. Yeldon http://www.clevelandbrownsteamonline.com/baker-mayfield-jersey , meanwhile, is dealing with foot and ankle injuries.Making Jacksonville's offense even more stagnant, the team is without its top two left tackles, its top two tight ends and its leading receiver from 2017.The 28-year-old Hyde was off to an impressive start in Cleveland. But he was taking playing time away from Chubb, who scored on two long touchdown runs at Oakland on Sept. 30 and enters Sunday's game averaging 10.8 yards on 16 carries. Also, running back Duke Johnson had gone from being a dual threat to mainly a receiver. He's had just 19 carries this season.Earlier this week, Browns coach Hue Jackson said it was vital to get Chubb more touches. Chubb had only three carries for 25 yards last week in a loss to the Los Angeles Chargers."We need to get him more chances," Jackson said. "But I think sometimes the game changes, you get behind and you need Duke Johnson out there because that is what he does well — catch the ball and run it. I think that is what you were seeing yesterday. As these games get a little closer Authentic Baker Mayfield Jersey , they do not get too far away and we can get up whatever that is, we do need to give Nick Chubb more carries."Browns reportedly offered Dez Bryant a deal he could refuse The Cleveland Browns and free agent wide receiver Dez Bryant have been linked for weeks now. The hype surrounding Bryant and the Browns reached a peak this past week when Bryant’s visit was highlighted on the HBO series Hard Knocks, which milked the visit to the point that some fans were expecting a Bryant signing while the episode aired. While it was not shown, the Browns did reportedly offer Bryant a contract, but it was one that the eight-year veteran had no trouble passing on, according to Mike Florio at Pro Football Talk:Bryant obviously turned the deal down, at least for now, as he continues to search for a deal that is likely never to materialize unless injury strikes and a team becomes desperate. The Browns are the only team that Bryant has visited since being released by the Dallas Cowboys in April, and he has only received one other contract offer Greg Joseph Jersey Elite , a reported three-year deal from the Baltimore Ravens in May.Bryant’s production has fallen off the past few years as he has not posted a 1,000-yard receiving season since 2014. Last season he finished with 69 receptions for 838 yards, six touchdowns and an average of 12.1 yards per reception - all the lowest in Bryant’s career for a season where he played all 16 games.The Browns mild interest in Bryant always seemed as if they were looking for an insurance policy in case wide receiver Josh Gordon decides to take another leave of absence from the team. But with the news that Gordon has now progressed to the point where he can participate in team walkthroughs - not practice or games, but just walking through the plays - it appears even less likely that there would be a spot for Bryant.Perhaps know that Bryant knows how the Browns value him, this will be the end of this odd summer romance.
