“Very STRANGE timing”: Are Browns looking to rope in Jimmy G after trading Baker Mayfield?

Baker Mayfield, Jimmy G

Cleveland Browns, probably the most talked about franchise this season. They have managed to stay in the news which isn’t a bad thing for an NFL franchise. However, the reasons for which the team has made the headlines aren’t going to please a lot of their admirers.

First, they made it crystal clear that they aren’t interested in giving Baker Mayfield another chance and went all in to get Deshaun Watson. After much deliberation, they were able to rope him in for a massive amount. However, the QB’s legal troubles landed them in a very tricky situation.

Fans were expecting them to go back to Baker but the QB wanted out. Most recently, the Browns traded Baker to the Carolina Panthers and that too in exchange for a conditional fifth round pick. Now, if Deshaun gets suspended, Baker is not there anymore and in that case, the Browns will end up high and dry.

However, as soon as Baker’s news was confirmed, many started speculating that the Cleveland-based franchise might be looking to rope in someone like Jimmy G. While there aren’t any confirmed reports but the 49ers don’t have a lot of options left to trade Jimmy as even Panthers have now got themselves a franchise QB.

In that case, with limited options for 49ers and desperation from the Browns, this trade speculation might actually transform into reality. Here’s what fans on Twitter had to say-

The Browns will find themselves in a really tough spot if Deshaun goes out of the picture. However, many are opining that in that case, they’ll be happy to go with Jacoby Brissett. It will be interesting to see what happens next but one thing is for sure, the Browns do have a lot to think about.
