This comes just one day after quarterback Joe Flacco was traded to the Cincinnati Bengals. The Browns sent Flacco and a 2026 sixth-round pick to the Bengals in exchange for a 2026 fifth-round pick.

Newsome was selected by the Browns in the first round of the 2021 NFL Draft. The Browns exercised the fifth-year option on Newsome's contract last spring, and he was set to be a free agent at the end of this season.
This season, Newsome has notched 23 total tackles, two for loss, with three passes defended. Since 2021, Newsome has played in 59 games, recording 178 total tackles, six for loss, with 37 passes defended, three interceptions, a touchdown and two split-sacks.
The Browns are essentially swapping cornerbacks with the Jaguars, with Campbell acquired in the trade. Campbell was originally selected by the Jaguars in the second round of the 2021 NFL Draft.
This season, Campbell has recorded 34 total tackles, one for loss, with six passes defended and a forced fumble. Since 2021, Campbell has recorded 296 total tackles, nine for loss, with 42 passes defended, three forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries, one returned for a touchdown, and six interceptions.
Campbell joins a cornerbacks room that consists of Denzel Ward, Dom Jones, Myles Harden and Jarick Bernard-Converse on the active roster.
