Browns DE Jared Verse film: 4 plays vs Ravens highlight skill, strength, versatility

The Cleveland Browns trade of DE Myles Garrett is right now known as just that, the “Myles Garrett trade.” The Browns are hoping that the Los Angeles Rams desire to keep DE Jared Verse was for good reason and the trade becomes the “Myles Garrett, Jared Verse trade.”

There is a history of that happening. For example, the “Matthew Stafford trade” became the “Matthew Stafford, Jared Goff trade” over time. Perhaps it is the first name (which this writer shares), but Verse’s first two seasons in the NFL give Cleveland fans a reason to be hopeful, along with the extra draft capital the team could use to find a quarterback.

A simple, one-game sample film breakdown of Verse going against Todd Monken’s old team, the Baltimore Ravens, gives even more excitement about what the Browns new edge player can bring. Here, you not only see Verse’s ability against a very good run team and his pass rush ability, but his willingness to chase a play down from behind:

While Lamar Jackson was not at quarterback, making plays against RB Derrick Henry and OT Roger Rosengarten is impressive.

What jumps to you in the above film breakdown on Verse?
