The 2024 NFL trade deadline passed at 4 p.m. ET on Tuesday, and we saw 18 moves in total.
Things got started with the Seahawks trading with the Jaguars for defensive tackle Roy Robertson-Harris on Oct. 14. But the Jets made arguably the biggest splash, landing wide receiver Davante Adams from the Raiders the next day. On deadline day, we saw the Steelers pick up wide receiver Mike Williams, the Lions add edge rusher Za’Darius Smith, the Cowboys deal for wide receiver Jonathan Mingo and the Commanders trade for cornerback Marshon Lattimore.
We tracked every trade, with analysis and highlights from our team of NFL reporters (latest info on top).

The Denver Broncos are trading pass rusher Baron Browning to the Arizona Cardinals for a sixth-round pick, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Browning was drafted by Denver in the third round of the 2021 NFL draft.
The Broncos also signed pass rusher Jonathon Cooper to a four-year, $60 million contract extension over the weekend, sources told ESPN. He has had one forced fumble and 5.5 sacks so far this season.
After the team’s loss to Atlanta in Week 9, Jones said the Cowboys “have some things in the mill.” However, when asked if the Cowboys would make a bold trade, like the one for Amari Cooper six years ago, Jones said, “Don’t look for those kinds of things, OK.”
“The point is,” Jones said, “we got a shot, we think, to improve our roster.”
The Cowboys have plenty of needs, like wide receiver, defensive line and offensive line.
In recent weeks, there have been players who privately stated or told their agents they want to be traded to the Commanders, league sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter. It’s possible the Commanders could comply by Tuesday’s 4 p.m. ET trade deadline. The Commanders have explored adding a cornerback and also could use help at wide receiver, according to league sources.
But even if the Commanders can’t complete any trades by the deadline, the fact that certain players would like to land in Washington bodes well for this franchise in free agency and in years to come, league sources told ESPN.
On top of the flurry of wide receiver trades that the NFL already has seen in recent weeks, there was one more in the making. The Steelers were in the process of trying to get a deal done for Christian Kirk, and league sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter that there was a reasonable chance that the Jaguars wide receiver was going to wind up as a Steeler until he broke his collarbone last Sunday.
Pittsburgh’s hope of upgrading its receiving corps was derailed, at least temporarily. But the Steelers are not giving up, a league source told ESPN. More notes from Schefter:
The Saints have gotten calls about Marshon Lattimore, according to league sources. One of the potential holdups of a deal is Lattimore’s health, sources said. The four-time Pro Bowl cornerback is not playing Sunday against the Panthers, but it hasn’t stopped teams from calling about him, including the two-time defending champion Chiefs.
The Chiefs already have traded for DeAndre Hopkins and Joshua Uche, but some sources around the league believe that whether it’s Lattimore or another player, Kansas City could push to make another move. The Chiefs host the Buccaneers on “Monday Night Football” and are prepared to act quickly with the trade deadline coming hours after their game.
One team that could continue trading players is the Jacksonville Jaguars, who already have traded defensive tackle Roy Robertson-Harris to the Seahawks and offensive tackle Cam Robinson to the Vikings, in addition to working on a potential trade for Kirk. The Jaguars will continue fielding calls and entertaining offers, and other players who could draw interest include five-time Pro-Bowl guard Brandon Scherff.
This weekend’s results could determine trade activity entering Tuesday’s deadline. A few musings from ESPN senior reporter Jeremy Fowler:
The Patriots have been looking for offensive line help. They looked into Cam Robinson before the Jaguars traded him to the Vikings, and they’ve also been in touch with free agent offensive tackle D.J. Humphries. At receiver, K.J. Osborn is the Patriots player I’m watching most closely at the deadline.
Giants pass rusher Azeez Ojulari‘s name has heated up in recent days. Teams that had him as a fringe option now believe he could get moved by Tuesday, especially if contenders in need of rush help don’t want to meet the Browns’ asking price for a Za’Darius Smith trade.
There aren’t many options for the Texans to improve their interior offensive line, but Chicago has made guard Nate Davis available and is willing to eat a chunk of his roughly $5 million in remaining guaranteed salary for the year.

With so many organizations growing more comfortable with the idea of making in-season trades, the hardest part for some general managers might be determining whether they should add or subtract talent at the deadline. While the extra week should help make each team’s playoff odds that much clearer, ESPN’s Football Power Index (FPI) suggests the vast majority of teams are still facing an uncertain future. Five teams have at least a 95% chance of advancing to the playoffs, while seven have seen their playoff odds dip below 5%. The 1-7 Panthers have dropped below the 0.1% threshold our simulation uses to signify any chance at all.
Twelve teams require a real debate about what they should do at the deadline, either because their chances are murky or because they don’t have a habit of acting rationally.
Who are the most likely players to be dealt, and who is getting under-the-radar interest? Which teams could be most intriguing in the lead-up to the deadline, and which trades would just make too much sense? It’s all here, as Jeremy Fowler and Dan Graziano answer big questions and empty their reporting notebooks with everything they’ve heard heading into Week 9. A few of the players they hit in their piece:
In six of the past seven years since coach Kyle Shanahan and general manager John Lynch took the reins of the San Francisco 49ers, they have made at least one trade at or just before the trade deadline.
The Niners (4-4) enter this week’s bye with the trade deadline looming at 4 p.m. on Tuesday, and there are plenty of directions they can go. Stay put and hope to get injured players back, acquire role players at key positions, or trade players on expiring contracts to build for the future.
The Minnesota Vikings are trading for offensive tackle Cam Robinson in a deal with the Jacksonville Jaguars. Robinson will help replace Christian Darrisaw, who is out for the season with a knee injury. The Jaguars will receive a conditional 2026 fifth-rounder, while the Vikings will get a conditional 2026 seventh-rounder along with Robinson.
Per ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Baltimore Ravens are trading for Carolina Panthers wide receiver Diontae Johnson. The Panthers will get a fifth-round pick in the deal, while the Ravens get a sixth-rounder back with Johnson.
The Kansas City Chiefs acquired pass rusher Joshua Uche in a trade with the New England Patriots, coach Andy Reid confirmed Monday. The Patriots received a 2026 sixth-round pick in the trade, a source told ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler.
Uche was a healthy scratch for the Patriots’ 25-22 victory over the New York Jets amid trade interest for the fifth-year outside linebacker.
For the second year in a row, pass rusher Joshua Uche is among the top New England Patriots players whom teams have inquired about as the NFL’s trade deadline approaches, according to team and league sources.
Uche’s modest salary, along with his ability to rush the passer, makes him an attractive option. Meanwhile, the Patriots are positioned to be among the group of teams willing to trade players for future assets.
For the teams still pondering ways to acquire Maxx Crosby, and for the fan bases imagining what the Pro Bowl defensive end would look like in their team’s uniform, those conversations can officially be shut down.
Las Vegas Raiders owner Mark Davis quashed the hopes and dreams of front offices and fans across the league this weekend when he roundly dismissed the notion that Las Vegas would trade its best player. “We’re Not Trading Maxx Crosby,” Davis said in an email to ESPN. “Before Or After The Trade Deadline!!!”
With Los Angeles Rams coach Sean McVay practically yanking Cooper Kupp off the trade market, teams in search of wide receiver help now are expected to turn to other targets. The two receivers who have generated the most conversation so far are Diontae Johnson (Carolina Panthers) and Christian Kirk (Jacksonville Jaguars), league sources told ESPN.
It wouldn’t be a surprise to see at least one of — and possibly both — traded by the NFL’s Nov. 5 deadline, continuing a trend of wide receiver being the most in-demand and tradeable position.
Which teams have the salary cap space right now to make big splashes? Who is in a good spot to add more draft capital or make a season-altering deal? And which teams might be sitting the deadline out to save cap space, looking ahead to extending their biggest stars next year? We called on our NFL Nation reporters to assess all 32 teams’ available cap space and draft capital.
The Seattle Seahawks are trading linebacker Jerome Baker and a fourth-round pick to the Tennessee Titans for linebacker Ernest Jones IV, sources tell ESPN’s Brady Henderson.
The Tennessee Titans and Kansas City Chiefs are working to finalize a trade that would send wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins to Kansas City, league sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
The Chiefs have had a need at wide receiver since Rashee Rice suffered a right knee injury in Week 4 that required season-ending surgery. The team also lost Hollywood Brown to a shoulder injury in the preseason, and JuJu Smith-Schuster suffered a hamstring injury last week.
The 2024 NFL trade deadline is Tuesday, Nov. 5, at 4 p.m. ET — just under two weeks away. We’ve already seen a few moves, including big wide receiver acquisitions for the Jets (Davante Adams), Bills (Amari Cooper) and Chiefs (DeAndre Hopkins). But what’s coming next in the trade market? We’re previewing the deadline for all 32 teams.
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp says he is aware his name has been mentioned in trade rumors before the deadline, but is focused on “being the best L.A. Ram” that he can be.
When asked whether the Rams have spoken to him or his representatives about the possibility of trading him, Kupp said, “Nothing really. No. It is that time of year. There’s going to be rumors and things that go around. I let that stuff, as much as I can, be in the background.”
After the New York Jets‘ acquisition of Davante Adams this week, a select group of NFL teams have inquired into whether the Jets would be willing to trade fellow star wide receiver Garrett Wilson, league sources told ESPN. The Jets are not planning to trade Wilson, according to sources.
Let’s run through the league and provide 12 trades that would make sense for both parties. There are players who are either buried on depth charts or in need of a fresh start who could be more helpful elsewhere. Among the players in my proposed deals:
Two of the top wide receivers available on the trade market, Davante Adams and Amari Cooper, were dealt this week, but neither to the Kansas City Chiefs. That’s not to the dismay of Mahomes, who said the Chiefs have enough talent at wide receiver to get where they want to go.
The Minnesota Vikings have acquired running back Cam Akers for the second time in 12 months, this time from the Houston Texans in an exchange of 2026 conditional draft choices, the team confirmed Tuesday. The Vikings will send a conditional 2026 sixth-round draft pick to the Texans in exchange for a conditional 2026 seventh-round draft pick.
The Buffalo Bills acquired Amari Cooper in a trade Tuesday with the Cleveland Browns, adding a true No. 1 wide receiver for star quarterback Josh Allen. The Bills received Cooper and a 2025 sixth-round draft pick for a 2025 third-round pick and a seventh-round selection in 2026.
The New York Jets are expected to finalize a trade with the Las Vegas Raiders for wide receiver Davante Adams, per ESPN’s Adam Schefter. It will be for a conditional third-round pick that can turn into a second-round pick, per sources. And the Raiders are not paying any of Adams’ remaining salary; the Jets will be assuming the balance of it.
The Seattle Seahawks are acquiring defensive tackle Roy Robertson-Harris in a trade with the Jacksonville Jaguars, a source confirmed to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Seattle is giving up a 2026 sixth-round pick.
Robertson-Harris, 31, gives the Seahawks a reinforcement for a defense that has been short-handed over the past three weeks and has struggled against the run.
Carolina wide receiver Diontae Johnson has come up in trade speculation as a potential fit for teams like the Chiefs, but Carolina coach Dave Canales doesn’t “see that happening.”
Johnson, 28, is in the last year of a two-year, $36,710,000 deal he signed while in Pittsburgh, fueling speculation that Carolina (1-3) would trade Johnson before the Nov. 5 trade deadline for value instead of risking losing him in free agency.
Where should Adams go? And what should the Raiders expect in return? Let’s get a sense of what the Adams trade market might look like in advance of the deadline.
Could Devin Singletary, Russell Wilson or Budda Baker be on the move? Here’s our way-too-early look at 15 players who might end up being on the move between now and the deadline, along with where they could end up.
