Browns select KC Concepcion with the 24th overall pick.
The Cleveland Browns addressed their wide receiver hole with the 24th overall pick.
Cleveland traded down from sixth overall to the ninth overall pick and selected Spencer Fano. Now, with their second pick in the first round, the Browns selected wide receiver KC Concepcion out of Texas A&M.
Cleveland entered the 2026 NFL Draft with a clear need at wide receiver and offensive tackle, and after the first round, the Browns addressed both.
Concepcion was an impact receiver at Texas A&M in his lone season with the Aggies after two years at NC State. The 5-foot-11 receiver recorded 61 receptions for 919 yards and 9 touchdowns last season at Texas A&M.
Concepcion joins the Browns’ receiving room that features Jerry Jeudy, Cedric Tillman, Isaiah Bond, and Malachi Corley. Tight end Harold Fannin Jr. is also a key part of the Browns pass catching offense.
