Tight end David Njoku has asked the Cleveland Browns to trade him before training camp, his agent, Drew Rosenhaus, told ESPN’s Adam Schefter on Friday.
The Browns told Njoku, 23, that they would like to keep him, but Rosenhaus told the team he’s intent on a trade.?
“It is in David’s best interest to find a new team at this time,”? Rosenhaus told Schefter.
The Browns have known for about a year that Njoku would welcome a trade, a source told ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler.
Sources with other teams told Fowler that Njoku might be worth a fourth- or fifth-round pick.
The Browns announced in April that they would pick up Njoku’s fifth-year option, worth $6.4 million.
