NFL Trades Shake Up Contenders

About this episode

NFL Offseason Trades: A.J. Brown, Brandon Aiyuk, and More on the Move

The 2026 NFL draft has concluded, but rosters are still in flux. Teams often make trades post-draft to address needs or offload excess talent, as seen with George Pickens and Jalen Ramsey last year. This offseason, keep an eye on potential deals involving wide receivers A.J. Brown and Brandon Aiyuk.

Recent reports suggest the Eagles may trade Brown after June 1st to free up salary cap space. The Patriots could also deal wide receiver Kayshon Boutte, who had 33 catches for 551 yards and 6 touchdowns last season, especially if they acquire Brown.

Quarterback Anthony Richardson, the fourth overall pick in 2023, has requested a trade from the Colts due to injuries and slow development, with Daniel Jones now in the mix. Giants edge rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux faces a crowded room after new draft picks.

On the defensive side, Colts cornerback Kenny Moore II, a nine-year veteran, has requested a trade and could be released if no deal is made. The Forty-Niners have voided Brandon Aiyuks guarantees post-ACL rehab and are open to trade offers, though a release appears likely.

As teams navigate the offseason, these trades could significantly impact contenders, so stay tuned for the next major swap that shakes up the league.
