River, Ohio– The Cleveland Browns signed recently acquired vast device Jerry Jeudy to a three- time extension, the group announced Tuesday.

Financial terms were not disclosed but the deal is worth$ 58 million, including$ 41 million guaranteed at signing, a source told ESPN.

Jeudy was traded to the Denver Broncos earlier this month by the Browns. To finish the deal, Cleveland sent 2024’s five- and sixth-round picks to Denver. The Browns had been looking for the first-round find for the 2020 draft from Alabama for more than a year.

After the deal, Jeudy told writers,” I want to get somewhere that wants me to be there.” ” I feel like it’s a new commence…. it’s just going to make things a lot easier for me and only better”.

Jeudy, who turns 25 next quarter, had 54 receptions for 758 yards and two touchdowns last year. Deshaun Watson, Browns lineman, will have another destination in him when he joins Pro Bowl tight end David Njoku and wide receiver Amari Cooper.

Cooper and large receiver Elijah Moore are expected to start their last year with contracts after the Browns traded for them for Jeudy last season.

Jeudy had his best season in Denver in 2022, setting career highs for touchdowns ( six ), catches ( 67 ) and yards (972 ).

When we made the decision to buy Jerry via business this spring, we had the intention that he would be a key component of our offense in 2024 and beyond,” said Browns general manager Andrew Berry in a statement released on Tuesday. He has a wealth of ways to produce either on the perimeter or in the slot, and he is a scheme-manlike device with high levels of versatility for separation against male coverage.
