With pick no. 142 in the 2023 NFL draft, the Cleveland Browns selected Northwestern cornerback Cameron Mitchell. This is the second Northwestern cornerback the Browns have selected in the last three seasons after taking Greg Newsome II in the first round of the 2021 NFL draft. And a fun fact about the pair of Northwestern cornerbacks: they are best friends.
After the selection of Mitchell, Newsome II took to Twitter to express his excitement about being reunited with his best friend and former Wildcats teammate. Needless to say, Newsome II is beyond thrilled to have his best friend back nearby and in the building with the Browns.
NOOOO WAYYY LFGGGGGGG GO BROWNS
