Browns Breakout Player Makes Star Turn, Now Key to Playoff Run
The Cleveland Browns spent much of the offseason and several days leading up to the NFL trade deadline looking for a pass-catcher to complement wide receiver Amari Cooper, but it turns out they had that player all along.
They just didn’t have a quarterback who knew how to utilize him.
Tight end David Njoku is in the conversation with second-year running back Jerome Ford and veteran QB Joe Flacco as the biggest breakout stars on the Browns offense this season. Bleacher Report’s NFL Staff on Sunday, December 17, dubbed the tight end an “elite threat” as Cleveland prepares for a playoff run that could have legitimate legs.
