Entering the 2019 season, there was a lot of drama around the Cleveland Browns back-up running back Duke Johnson. Once one of the better players on the team, Johnson was suddenly behind Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt (who was suspended for eight games) and he wasn’t happy about it.
After asking to be traded and holding out of OTAs, the Browns finally gave into Duke’s commands, but they didn’t get rid of him just for the sake of moving on.
Instead, general manager John Dorsey pulled off a great trade that netted them at least a fourth-round pick.
