Denzel Ward trade remains a possibility for Browns amid uncertainty

Cleveland Browns cornerback Denzel Ward may still be traded during the 2026 season despite his stated desire to remain with the team. Sources indicate that while general manager Andrew Berry does not expect Ward to leave, the player's future could be complicated by recent roster changes and the lack of guarantees on his contract. Ward's comments at his charity game emphasized his loyalty but hinted at uncertainties following Myles Garrett's departure. The Browns, having revamped their defense ahead of the season, might consider trading Ward if their performance does not meet expectations.
