Browns DB Greg Newsome's has hired Drew Rosenhaus as his agent. Newsome has been linked to a lot of trade rumors and it's unclear what the future holds for him at the NFL level. What's behind his decision to go with Rosenhaus? Usually, the hiring of super agent Drew Rosenhaus has been bad news for the Cleveland Browns. And this is what third-year cornerback Greg Newsome II did today. There was speculation that Newsome II wanted out of Cleveland after being forced into the slot in 2022, but ESPN’s Adam Schefter has reported that Newsome is excited to play for new defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz and is happy in Cleveland. Newsome II will be in attendance as the Browns begin their offseason programming on Monday as well, Schefter reports.  Greg Newsome II has made plenty of noise over the course of this offseason that he wasn't happy with his role on the Browns last season. That's led to plenty of speculation that the cornerback wants out of Cleveland. That speculation took on a new life on Tuesday morning. That speculation, though, was quickly squashed. Newsome, who has two years plus the possibility of a fifth-year option remaining on his rookie deal, recently returned to his original agent, Drew Rosenhaus, after having been with Klutch Sports last season. Rosenhaus tweeted the reunion on Tuesday morning. Moments after Rosenhaus' tweet came another one from the Orange and Brown Report's Brad Stainbrook saying Newsome "would like to be traded," according to a source. However, both Newsome and Rosenhaus quickly went to work trying to defuse the situation. Rosenhaus, when asked by the Beacon Journal if Newsome requested a trade, texted back, "No he has not." The agent did meet with Browns general manager Andrew Berry. Newsome himself took to Twitter to refute the story. He did so by quote tweeting the original Stainbrook tweet which said he asked for a trade. The Browns are scheduled to begin their voluntary offseason training program on Monday. Newsome is expected to be in attendance. Newsome and new defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz have talked this offseason. Part of those discussions involve his role on the defense. . With the emergence of 2022 rookie Martin Emerson Jr. on the outside, Newsome found himself playing in the slot for a significant number of snaps when the Browns went to a three-cornerback look. "I like playing outside, too, so I mean it's definitely a role that I would like to have, but more so I feel like I would like to have it more on a more matchup basis instead of just having me just be inside the whole time. So, yeah, that's something that I'm kind of going to work through."  BetterHelp This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp. BetterHelp connects you with a licensed therapist who can take you on that journey of self-discovery from wherever you are.  Visit BetterHelp.com/lockedon today to get 10% off your first month.
