As part of the trade, Cleveland will send a 2024 fifth- and sixth-round pick to Denver. ESPN noted that the trade cannot be officially completed until the new league year begins on Wednesday.

Jeudy, who turns 25 next month, was drafted out of the University of Alabama in the first round of the 2020 draft by the Broncos.
