Donovan Peoples-Jones and the Cleveland Browns have a lot of time on their hands. Planning on playing well into the postseason, the Browns fell short of even making the playoffs. While not the major problem for the team, Peoples-Jones fell short of expectations in his second year as well.
The former Michigan wide receiver showed flashes as a rookie before being the standout star of training camp in 2021 for the Browns. While his numbers jumped, it wasn’t enough for a Cleveland offense that lacked player makers.
Expected to be the team’s top outside threat after Odell Beckham Jr. was released, the former sixth-round pick had 34 receptions for 597 yards and three touchdowns. He continued to be a strong big player guy with a 17.6 yards per catch average.
DPJ just announced the development of a new mobile game that shares his initials but stands for “Deep Pass Jam.” The receiver shared more details on Twitter:

The game is available for both iPhone and Android products.
As noted in his tweet, Peoples-Jones is giving back by having part of the proceeds from in-app purchases go to the C.S. Mott Children’s Hospital located on the campus of the University of Michigan.
