The Detroit Lions are looking to pounce on a potential trade for Cleveland Browns cornerback Greg Newsome.
The Browns let teams know during the combine that they’re open to trade talks surrounding their cornerbacks, per Jason La Canfora of The Washington Post.
“Multiple GMs said the Cleveland Browns made it clear they are open to dealing one of their top cornerbacks as they try to balance salaries after years of heavy spending,” La Canfora said.
The Lions are a team that has shown interest in potentially landing Newsome, per Jeff Risdon of The Lions Wire.
“Very strong indications the Browns are looking to make a move with Newsome,” Risdon tweeted on Friday, March 8. “Also very strong indications the Lions have at least picked up the phone to talk about it.”
