Steelers Orlando Brown

The Baltimore Ravens have traded offensive tackle Orlando Brown Jr. to the Kansas City Chiefs, according to multiple reports.

In addition to Brown, Baltimore will also send Kansas City the No. 58 selection in next week’s draft and a 2022 sixth-round pick.

The Ravens will receive the 31st-overall pick in the first round of the 2021 NFL Draft, the No. 94 selection in the third round, the 136th pick and a fifth-round pick next year in return.

Baltimore now owns the 27th and 31st selections in next week’s draft.

Kansas City acquires Brown with the intention of attempting to sign him to a long-term extension, a deal he was unable to find in Baltimore. The Chiefs add a promising left tackle that not only can immediately bolster their average offensive line, but also develop alongside quarterback Patrick Mahomes at just 24 years-old.

They released starting left tackle Eric Fisher earlier this offseason.

Like the Steelers, the Ravens could also now be in pursuit of an offensive tackle in the first round. Luckily for Pittsburgh, they will have their pick of the litter before Baltimore at No. 24.
