With hours to go before the 4 p.m. deadline, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported Chicago had traded for Browns DE Joe Tryon-Shoyinka. Tryon-Shoyinka was the 32nd pick in the 2021 NFL draft by the Buccaneers. The Bears are sending a sixth-round pick to Cleveland in exchange for the DE and a seventh-round pick.

The Cleveland Browns made their first move of the NFL trade deadline dealing a pass rusher to an NFC contender for a late return.
