Oct. 28

Kansas City Chiefs acquire LB Josh Uche from New England Patriots

Key stats: Uche has two sacks, 13 total tackles, two tackles for loss and two quarterback hits this season. The second-round pick out of Michigan in 2020 has primarily been a rotation piece throughout his career in New England, though he did have a career-high 11.5 sacks in a breakout 2022 campaign.

What else is involved: The Patriots are receiving a 2026 sixth-round pick from the Chiefs.

Why it matters: Much like the Patriots often were during the dynastic days of Bill Belichick and Tom Brady, the Chiefs have built a defense worthy of winning games on its own while still having an all-time great quarterback in Patrick Mahomes. Uche does not fill a need nearly as drastic as the Chiefs had at wide receiver before trading for DeAndre Hopkins, as Kansas City is led by its pass-rush and All-Pro defensive tackle Chris Jones. But Uche still gives defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo some quality depth on the edge.

Seattle Seahawks acquire LB Ernest Jones IV from Tennessee Titans for LB Jerome Baker

Key stats: Jones has recorded 44 total tackles and six stuffs in six games so far this season. Baker has recorded 37 total tackles, one sack, a forced fumble and 2.5 stuffs in five games this season.

What else is involved: The Titans are receiving a fourth-round pick from the Seahawks.

Why it matters: Even though the Seahawks went 4-3 through their first seven games, they’ve struggled against the run. They’ve allowed the fifth-most rushing yards per game (146.1) and yards per attempt against (five) through the first seven weeks of the season. Jones has been one of the league’s best tackles over the last few years, recording 145 total tackles in 2023 after posting a 114-tackle season in 2022. As for the Titans, the trade further solidifies their seller approach ahead of the trade deadline amid their 1-5 start to the season. The Titans acquired Jones from the Rams in August, giving up a fifth-round pick while surrendering a sixth-round pick in the deal.

Kansas City Chiefs acquire WR DeAndre Hopkins from Tennessee Titans

Key stats: 15 catches, 173 yards, 1 receiving touchdown in six games (three starts). Hopkins is a five-time Pro Bowler and three-time All-Pro. Has seven seasons with at least 1,000 yards receiving. Led NFL in touchdown catches in 2017, with 13.

What else is involved: The Chiefs are sending a conditional fifth-round pick to the Titans.

Why it matters: The 32-year-old Hopkins gives QB Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs a much-needed target in a WR corp that has been hit by injuries. The Chiefs lost wide receiver Marquise Brown, one of their top free-agent signings, to shoulder surgery prior to the start of the season. Second-year star Rashee Rice sustained a season-ending knee injury last month against the Chargers, and veteran wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster is out after hurting his hamstring in last Sunday’s win over the 49ers.

Oct. 15

New York Jets acquire WR Davante Adams from Las Vegas Raiders

Key stats: 18 receptions, 209 receiving yards, 1 receiving touchdown in three games. Recorded at least 1,000 receiving yards in each of the last four seasons.

What else is involved: The Jets are sending the Raiders a conditional 2025 third-round pick. The pick will become a second-round pick if Adams is named to an All-Pro team or he’s on the active roster if the Jets make it to the AFC Championship Game.

Why it matters: The move reunites one of the game’s best receivers over the last five seasons with the quarterback he’s had the most success with. Adams helped Aaron Rodgers win MVP in the 2020 and 2021 seasons when bothe were with the Green Bay Packers. The Jets’ offense hasn’t gotten off to a great start, ranking 22nd in total offense (304.3 yards per game) and 23rd in scoring (18.8 points per game) through the first six weeks. Adams joins a wide receiver corps that has Garrett Wilson and fellow ex-Packer Allen Lazard, who have had some success catching passes from Rodgers this season.

Buffalo Bills acquire WR Amari Cooper from Cleveland Browns

Key stats: 24 receptions, 250 receiving yards, 2 receiving touchdowns. Recorded at least 1,000 receiving yards in each of the last two seasons.

What else is involved: The Bills are sending the Browns a 2025 third-round pick and a 2026 seventh-round pick. Buffalo will also receive a 2025 sixth-round pick.

Why it matters: After trading Stefon Diggs in the offseason, the Bills never really replaced him. They selected wide receiver Keon Coleman early in the second round of the NFL Draft and made a couple of low-investment signings at the position (Curtis Samuel, Mack Hollins). While the Bills are off to a 4-2 start, Khalil Shakir is their leading receiver this season with just 20 receptions for 249 yards and two touchdowns. Cooper instantly provides Josh Allen with the star-level top-tier wide receiver he’s lacked since Diggs’ departure.

Minnesota Vikings acquire RB Cam Akers from Houston Texans

Key stats: 147 rushing yards, 3.7 yards per carry, 1 rushing touchdown in five games. 

What else is involved: The Vikings are sending the Texans a conditional 2026 sixth-round pick. Minnesota is also receiving a conditional 2026 seventh-round pick. 

Why it matters: Vikings starting running back Aaron Jones suffered a hip injury in Week 5 and his status for the next few games is uncertain. Akers also has familiarity with Vikings head coach Kevin O’Connell. He played under him for two seasons with the Los Angeles Rams when O’Connell was the offensive coordinator, and then Akers reunited with O’Connell in Minnesota last season, where he rushed for 138 yards on 3.6 yards per carry and a touchdown in six games after being dealt there from the Rams last season. While Akers had played in five games with 40 rushing attempts for the Texans this year, his role there was set to diminish following the return of Joe Mixon from a Week 2 hip injury.

Oct. 14

Seattle Seahawks acquire DL Roy Robertson-Harris from Jacksonville Jaguars

Key stats: 7 combined tackles, 2 sacks in six games

What else is involved: The Seahawks are sending a 2026 sixth-round pick to the Jaguars.

Why it matters: After starting the season 3-0, the Seahawks have struggled defensively over their last three games. They rank 27th in run defense (144.6 rushing yards per game) following Week 6. Rookie defensive tackle Bryon Murphy has also missed the Seahawks’ last three games.
