The wheeling and dealing continues bright and early Tuesday in the NFL, as the Cleveland Browns and New England Patriots made a true football trade.
According to a Tuesday morning report from NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, the Patriots are sending fourth-year EDGE Chase Winovich to the Browns for fourth-year linebacker Mack Wilson.
Winovich, a Greater Pittsburgh-area native, was a third-round draft pick in 2019 out of Michigan. In three seasons with the Patriots, Winovich recorded 11.0 sacks, all of which came in his first two seasons. The disruptive EDGE defender dealt with injuries in 2021 and played primarily special teams last season under Bill Belichick.
