As the 2024 NFL trade deadline approaches, teams in cities across the league are gearing up for potential last-minute moves. The deadline is set for Tuesday at 4 p.m. ET, and it could be a busy day with several teams looking to make trades before the pause until the offseason.
So far, several high-profile players have switched teams, including Pro Bowl wide receivers Davante Adams and Amari Cooper. As the deadline looms, more trades are expected as teams look to either bolster their rosters for a playoff push or trade players for future assets.
The Washington Commanders are reportedly exploring trade options involving cornerback Emmanuel Forbes, their first-round pick from 2023. Forbes has struggled this season with only one interception in five games. Teams such as the Baltimore Ravens, Cincinnati Bengals, and Arizona Cardinals are rumored to have interest in bringing Forbes on board.
In a recent move, the Arizona Cardinals have acquired Baron Browning, a pass rusher from the Denver Broncos, for a sixth-round pick. Browning’s status as a reserve player on the final year of his rookie deal likely made him a target for trade discussions.
Additionally, the New York Giants pass rusher Azeez Ojulari has drawn interest from teams like the Cardinals, Atlanta Falcons, and Cincinnati Bengals. Ojulari’s performance has been impressive, but the Giants have strong edge options, including Brian Burns and Kayvon Thibodeaux.
On the offensive side, the Chicago Bears have put guard Nate Davis on the trading block just one year after signing him to a hefty three-year deal. Meanwhile, the New Orleans Saints are reportedly looking to offload some veterans after the firing of coach Dennis Allen, with interest brewing around Marshon Lattimore and veteran pass rushers like Cameron Jordan.
The tension is palpable as the trade deadline draws near, and teams are actively shopping around players to help their chances of success this season. With under 48 hours left until the cutoff, fans and analysts alike are eager to see what changes might transpire before the deadline closes.
