Impending free agent tight end David Njoku, who has played the entirety of his nine-year career with the Browns, will not return to Cleveland in 2026.
Njoku wrote in an Instagram post on Monday night that “the time for me to find a new home has come and all I can think of is just the gratefulness in my heart. The City of Cleveland will forever be home.”
The 29-year-old Njoku was the subject of trade rumors around the NFL’s trade deadline but remained in Cleveland for the rest of the season, prompting him to tell reporters, “I’m not going nowhere. I ain’t f—ing leaving.”
