Giants, Browns reportedly swapping Kevin Zeitler, Olivier Vernon and picks

The New York Giants acquired right guard Kevin Zeitler and a 2019 fifth-round pick from the Cleveland Browns in exchange for defensive end Olivier Vernon and a 2019 fourth-round pick.

What It Means:

Cleveland was reportedly eager to deal Zeitler and the Giants made it known they wanted to off Vernon's contract, so it's a logical outcome. Zeitler is considered an elite player at his position and today is his 29th birthday.

Zeitler graded out as Pro Football Focus' top pass-blocking guard in 2018.
