Pittsburgh made no trades before the NFL deadline, despite reported interest in wide receivers and cornerbacks, and will rely on its current roster for a tougher stretch of its schedule. The 6-2 Steelers drew scrutiny for standing pat as AFC rivals made upgrades; New England also made no trades, citing confidence in its roster and the expected return of injured players. Jacksonville added safety Jessie Bates and defensive tackles Jordan Davis and Davon Godchaux, while Buffalo acquired safety Amani Hooker, Kansas City added receiver Josh Downs, and Denver traded for linebacker Daiyan Henley. Bates is expected to strengthen a Jaguars pass defense that had ranked 22nd, while Atlanta received draft picks in the deal. Teams can continue pursuing free agents and waiver claims after the deadline.

The College Football Playoff says its expanded media-rights agreement with ESPN is in final review, paving the way for a proposed 24-team playoff starting in 2027, with four Power Four automatic bids, one Group of Six bid and 19 at-large spots. The expansion could bring ESPN an additional $345 million annually, but critics warn that more playoff games could further weaken regular-season viewership and the relevance of bowl games.
