Browns trade Leroy Watson IV to the Titans

According to the Associated Press on Sunday, the Tennessee Titans have acquired offensive tackle Leroy Watson IV of Snellville, Georgia from the Cleveland Browns for a seventh round pick in the 2024 National Football League Draft. The pick is the 227th overall pick.

Watson IV was a rookie with the Browns in 2023. He played seven games and was on the football field for 55 offensive snap counts and 28 special teams snap counts.

Undrafted, Watson IV was initially on the practice squads for the Atlanta Falcons and San Francisco 49ers in 2022. He was waived by the Falcons on August 30, 2022 before the National Football League regular season began. Then on September 5, 2022, Watson IV was signed to the 49ers practice squad, and remained there until November 2, 2023, when he was signed by the Browns.

At the collegiate level, Watson IV played two seasons (2017 and 2018) at Hutchinson Community College in Kansas and three seasons (2019, 2020, and 2021) at the University of Texas at San Antonio. On occasion at both institutions, Watson IV was used as a receiver. In five seasons, he had 37 catches for 420 receiving yards and four touchdowns.

The Titans have been very busy in the offseason. In addition to Watson IV, they have acquired several players in free agency. They include wide receiver Calvin Ridley of Fort Lauderdale, Florida from the Jacksonville Jaguars. Lloyd Cushenberry III of Geismar, Louisiana from the Denver Broncos, running back Tony Pollard of Memphis, Tennessee from the Dallas Cowboys, and linebacker Kenneth Murray of Missouri City, Texas from the Los Angeles Chargers.
