The Atlanta Falcons are trading linebacker Deion Jones to the Cleveland Browns, per multiple reports.
Both teams are also swapping late-round draft picks in the deal, per NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport. The Falcons are getting a sixth-round pick in the 2024 NFL draft in return, while the Browns are getting a seventh-rounder in next year’s draft along with Jones.
A second-round pick out of LSU in 2016, Jones made the Pro Bowl in 2017, but has struggled with injuries and inconsistency in recent years. Jones, 27, has been on injured reserve all season with the Falcons.
