Landry will become the first player in 40 years to change teams in the season after leading the NFL in receptions
The last player to do so was RB Lydell Mitchell, who led NFL with 71 catches in 1977 before leaving Baltimore Colts to join San Diego Chargers

More teams becoming aware of this (something the Seahawks realized 5 years ago) ... will be one of the dominant team-building themes for the rest of the decade.
Landry had more touchdowns and almost as many receptions as all Browns wide receivers combined in 2017
- Browns WRs (2017): 134 receptions, 7 receiving TD
- Jarvis Landry (2017): 112 receptions, 9 receiving TD
The Browns assume the $16M, one-year contract for Landry, and the two sides have not included a long-term extension as part of this deal.
They will likely talk, but Landry could also simply play on the 1-year deal, see how Todd Haley uses him, and cash in next offseason
