Bengals Trade Brown Jr. to Chargers
The Cincinnati Bengals have just finished their 2022 season, and they are already making moves for the 2023 season. Today, the Bengals traded offensive tackle Orlando Brown Jr. to the Los Angeles Chargers in exchange for multiple draft picks.
The details of the trade are as follows:
The Bengals will receive a second-round pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, a fourth-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, and a fifth-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft.
The Chargers will receive Brown Jr., a first-round pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, and a third-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.
This trade is a win-win for both teams. The Bengals get a good return for Brown Jr., who was a Pro Bowler in 2021. The Chargers get a talented offensive tackle who can help protect Justin Herbert.
Brown Jr. was traded to the Bengals in 2021 from the Baltimore Ravens for a first-round pick and a third-round pick. He started all 17 games for the Bengals in 2021 and was a key part of their offensive line, and helped Burrow throw for over 4,000 yards.
The Chargers are coming off a disappointing 2022 season, going 10-7 and missing the playoffs. They are hoping that Brown Jr. can help them improve their offensive line and make a run at the Super Bowl in 2023.
The Bengals are coming off a Super Bowl appearance in 2022, and they are hoping to make another run in 2023. They have a lot of talent on their roster, and they are hoping that the addition of extra draft picks will help them fill some holes.
