Los Angeles traded offensive tackle KT Leveston to Cleveland…

Both clubs officially documented this transaction on August 26, 2025. Cleveland's transaction log and initial 53-man roster announcement list the Browns acquiring tackle KT Leveston from Los Angeles for a 2028 seventh-round pick, while the Rams' own announcement gives the same one-player, one-pick structure. NFL's league transaction log independently records Leveston moving from the Rams to Cleveland that day. The clean source record lets TradeVerdicts remove the thin legacy wording and judge the deal from actual 2025 usage rather than projection. Leveston had been a developmental asset for Los Angeles. The Rams selected him 254th overall in the seventh round of the 2024 draft, but an ankle injury placed him on injured reserve and he never appeared in a regular-season game as a rookie. Los Angeles opened his practice window late that season without activating him, and his first NFL game action came in the 2025 preseason. Trading him for a future seventh-rounder therefore recovered draft capital from a player who had not yet contributed to the Rams' regular-season lineup. Cleveland received substantially more immediate football value than the pick's modest price suggested. NFL and Browns career records show Leveston appearing in 16 regular-season games in 2025 with seven starts. He made starts in Weeks 4 and 5, then returned to the starting lineup for the final five games of the season. That is meaningful tackle depth for the cost of a seventh-round choice three drafts into the future, especially from a player who had zero prior regular-season appearances. The Rams' side cannot yet be judged from the eventual selected player because the 2028 draft remains in the future. Their return is therefore still an unspent seventh-round asset rather than realized on-field production. Cleveland's acquired value is already concrete: 16 games and seven starts in the first season after the trade. TradeVerdicts retains the Browns-win direction but grounds it in completed evidence. Cleveland earns a B for turning distant late-round capital into a player who became a multi-game starter; Los Angeles receives a C+ for recovering a future pick from a former seventh-rounder who had not cracked its regular-season lineup. Confidence is high on the transaction and 2025 usage, while the Rams' eventual pick outcome remains naturally unresolved until 2028.
