Jaguars’ trade for Greg Newsome trade finalized at 2026 NFL Draft

How did Greg Newsome play for the Jaguars?

Newsome’s inconsistencies remained an issue in Jacksonville, where he allowed nearly 70 percent of passes targeted at him to be completed, along with 11.7 yards per catch. It wasn’t a bad season by any means, but it wasn’t like his first two seasons in the NFL, which Jacksonville was looking for in the trade. He also had just one pass breakup and one interception after the trade.

What did the Jaguars do with the pick from the Tyson Campbell trade?

Neither team ended up holding on to the pick they received. The Jaguars traded the sixth-rounder they received as a part of the Jakobi Meyers trade, sending both the sixth-rounder and a fourth-rounder to the Las Vegas Raiders. Then, Las Vegas moved the pick to the Buffalo Bills this offseason when acquiring cornerback Taron Johnson and a seventh-round pick. So, the Bills held the No. 182 pick entering the weekend. But they traded it to the Broncos in the first round, and Denver traded it back to the Cleveland Browns. Sunrise, sunset.

How did Tyson Campbell play for the Browns in 2025?

Campbell, on the other hand, ended up being a great fit in Jim Schwartz’s defense, and is set to be Cleveland’s No. 2 outside corner opposite Denzel Ward for the future.

What did the Browns do with the pick from the Greg Newsome trade?

The Browns traded away the seventh-rounder they received with Joe Tryon-Shoyinka to the Chicago Bears at the deadline for a sixth-round pick.

Who won the Browns and Jaguars trade for Greg Newsome and Tyson Campbell?

It’s tougher to compare the two cornerbacks and their play after the trade because they played in different defenses, but Jacksonville didn’t fare well here. Their gamble for Newsome, who was on the final year of his deal, didn’t produce the results they wanted, although Jacksonville’s defense remained quite good for most of the year. Newsome ended up walking in free agency, signing a one-year, $10 million deal with the New York Giants. Campbell, on the other hand, seems like a strong fit in Cleveland and a key starter at a premium position. Not to mention, his cap hits for the 2025 and 2026 are very reasonable. While Campbell wasn’t the best fit in Jacksonville’s new defense, this trade didn’t work out great in its favor.
