NEW YORK (WFAN) — Calvin Pryor is on his way out of New York.
Selected in the first round of the NFL draft back in 2014, the disappointing safety was traded to the Cleveland Browns on Thursday, the Jets announced.
Linebacker Demario Davis, who played for the Jets from 2012-15 before signing with the Browns, is heading back to New York in the deal.
Nicknamed “The Louisville Slugger,” Pryor was a big favorite of former Jets head coach Rex Ryan due to his rugged play while at the University of Louisville. However, Pryor struggled during his three seasons with the Jets, especially in pass coverage.
