2026 NFL Trade Deadline Sets Record for Deals

The 2026 NFL trade deadline capped a record-setting year for trades, with the Bears and Jaguars making aggressive defensive moves and Kirk Cousins returning to Minnesota. The Jaguars added three defenders, including Jordan Davis and Davon Godchaux; Kansas City acquired Josh Downs, San Francisco landed Keenan Allen, and Buffalo acquired Amani Hooker. Indianapolis traded away wide receivers but kept Jonathan Taylor despite a reported Giants offer of a second- and fifth-round pick, while Pittsburgh explored a trade for Calvin Ridley but made no deal. Several proposed deals collapsed, including Maxx Crosby’s move from Las Vegas to Baltimore after he failed a physical and Cincinnati’s deal for Arnold Ebiketie over compensatory-pick concerns. Dallas stood pat despite defensive needs, while Pittsburgh also stood pat after pursuing other receivers.
