The Pittsburgh Steelers also got into the action on Tuesday by making a pair of moves that netted receiver Mike Williams from the Jets and pass rusher Preston Smith from the Packers.
There were also a handful of smaller deals in the closing minutes before the deadline, which followed some more significant trades that took place in the prior weeks.
Here’s a full list of the trades that went down this season, beginning with the most recent:
49ers get DT Khalil Davis from Texans for seventh-round pick
Ravens improve secondary with CB Tre’Davious White from Rams
Steelers add D-line depth with Preston Smith from Packers
Steelers bolster WR corps with Mike Williams from Jets
Commanders send Saints three picks for CB Marshon Lattimore
Cowboys get WR Jonathan Mingo from Panthers amid pick swap
Bengals add RB Khalil Herbert for seventh-rounder from Chicago
Lions help pass rush by adding Za’Darius Smith from Browns
Cardinals add LB Baron Browning from Broncos for sixth-round pick

Ravens acquire WR Diontae Johnson from Panthers for Day 3 pick

Vikings acquire RB Cam Akers for conditional Day 3 pick
Browns trade WR Amari Cooper to Bills for pair of draft picks

The story of this deadline is also about the deals that didn’t get done.
While there were rumors about 2023 No. 1 overall pick Bryce Young being dealt, the Panthers opted to stick with their quarterback. The same went for the Colts and QB Anthony Richardson, who reportedly drew interest from other teams.
While the Chiefs and Lions bolstered their Super Bowl hopes at the trade deadline, the Cowboys only sacrificed their future.

49ers get a deal done right before the buzzer
The 4 p.m. ET trade deadline has now passed, but San Francisco managed to sneak in a quick deal for a defensive lineman at the last minute.
Ravens acquiring CB Tre’Davious White from Rams
The two-time Pro Bowl cornerback is heading to the Ravens for a 2026 seventh-round pick and a 2027 seventh-round pick.
The 29-year-old White is in his eighth NFL season. He spent 2017-2023 with the Buffalo Bills before joining the Rams in the offseason. He’s played four games this season and has recorded 12 total tackles and zero interceptions.
Teams not meeting Giants’ price for OLB Azeez Ojulari
Ojulari, a 2021 second-round pick, has 26 tackles, 7 for loss, and six sacks through nine games. He is in the final year of his rookie contract.
Barring a significant pivot by 4p Eastern, the #Giants will retain LB Azeez Ojulari. They’d made it clear they weren’t going to give him away and held firm. Ojulari (6 sacks, two short of his career-high) now heads down the home stretch of his contract toward free agency. pic.twitter.com/lA4xrGQQXS
Yahoo Sports’ Charles Robinson reported this week that some executives around the NFL thought the Panthers would be open to movie the second-year QB if the right offer came across GM Dan Morgan’s desk.
The offers were apparently not there and so Young, who briefly lost his starting job this season, will remain in Carolina.
The Panthers will be keeping QB Bryce Young, per source.

Report: Colts got calls on Anthony Richardson — they said no

About an hour before the deadline and this is sure to turn heads from ESPN Colts beat writer Stephen Holder:
With the NFL trade deadline looming, here’s an interesting development:
There have been multiple inquiries in recent days about the availability of Colts QB Anthony Richardson, who was benched last week.
All suitors have gotten the same answer: He’s off limits.
Panthers WR Adam Thielen may not be on the move today
Thielen has been out since Week 3 with a hamstring injury and with the Panthers looking towards the future, he is an ideal trade candidate. The wideout’s contract does not feature a no-trade clause.
With just more than an hour left to go until the deadline, looking unlikely the Panthers will deal veteran WR Adam Thielen
The Green Bay perspective of the Preston Smith trade
Smith has 2.5 sacks and 2 TFL this season, and his playing time has dwindled in recent weeks. Plus, it represents some significant cap savings for the Packers in future years. Green Bay is reportedly getting a 7th-round draft pick from the Steelers in return.
Smith is owed almost $2m for the rest of this year. Scheduled to make $13.4m in 2025 and $14.1 in 2026, but not guaranteed. https://t.co/mRBcB4ooPq
Steelers stay aggressive, trading for Packers pass rusher Preston Smith
Pittsburgh is having a very active trade deadline day, adding Preston Smith after already striking a deal for WR Mike Williams earlier. The Smith trade is a bit surprising considering the Packers are 6-3 and very much in the NFC playoff picture.
Patriots also reportedly open for business
The Patriots have told teams they’re open for business with a handful of veterans, particularly those on expiring contracts, per sources. The question is how much of a reset is worth it when they’re trying to establish momentum for 2025 when those vets will only net late picks.
Ojulari, a 2021 second-round pick, has 26 tackles, 7 for loss, and six sacks through nine games. He is in the final year of his rookie contract.
The #Giants have received several calls on pass rusher Azeez Ojulari, but the Baron Browning trade could loom large. Browning went to Arizona for a 6th, and the sense is New York values Ojulari more than that. Perhaps the Za’Darius Smith trade brings the market into focus.
Jets’ Aaron Rodgers offers well-wishes to Mike Williams after trade
Mike Williams was the odd man out in the Jets wide receiver room once New York landed Davante Adams last month. It was only a matter of time before Williams got dealt, which happened Tuesday as the Jets sent him to the Steelers for a fifth-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft.
Jets QB Aaron Rodgers had some kind words about Williams during his guest spot on “The Pat McAfee Show.”
“Mike’s a good guy. He’ll be good in that locker room,” Rodgers said Tuesday.
“Sometimes a change of scenery is great for certain guys.”
Chiefs done for deadline after missing on CB Marshon Lattimore?
While there’s still some time on the clock, I don’t expect the Chiefs to be making any more moves before the trade deadline. They tried to make it happen with the Saints for Marshon Lattimore, but it obviously didn’t work out.
The #chiefs were interested and were in on CB Marshon Lattimore. But with the return that the #saints got, it was just too rich for KC to make the move to my understanding.
The Chiefs have been pretty aggressive in looking for corner help. Pricetag for Marshon Lattimore was simply too rich. Whether they can find someone at the right price, who’s an upgrade over what they already have, remains to be seen. Tight cap situation does complicate it.
The eight-year NFL veteran was in his first season with the Jets after seven years with the Los Angeles Chargers. Through nine games in New York, Williams has 166 receiving yards on 12 catches with zero touchdowns.
According to Adam Schefter, the Steelers will assume the remainder of the wideout’s contract and Williams will become a free agent after the season.
DK Metcalf not going anywhere
One of Geno Smith’s main targets will reportedly be staying in Seattle.
Saints trade Marshon Lattimore to Commanders
Trade: New Orleans is sending four-time Pro-Bowl CB Marshon Lattimore to the Washington Commanders, per sources.
