The NFL’s midseason game of musical chairs wraps up on Tuesday afternoon with the trade deadline set for 4 p.m. ET.
Leading up to this year’s deadline, we’ve already seen a solid amount of movement throughout the league. To this point, some of the headliners include Los Angeles Rams acquiring corner Jalen Ramsey, the Niners dealing for receiver Emmanuel Sanders and New England trading for receiver Mohamed Sanu. On the eve of the deadline, running back Kenyan Drake was shipped out of Miami and to Arizona and defensive tackle Leonard Williams was sent across the hall of MetLife Stadium as the Jets traded him to the Giants.
While we’ve already seen numerous trades go down, there are plenty more dominos to potentially drop. The biggest news to come forward on the day of the deadline is the report form the New York Daily News that the Jets are looking to trade running back Le’Veon Bell. Not only that, but there are rumblings that they’d move on from star safety Jamal Adams as well.
Elsewhere, the Rams moved on from corner Aqib Talib as they shipped him and a fifth-round pick to Miami. The Redskins have seemingly changed course with star left tackle Trent Williams and are now fielding offers. Washington also appears willing to part with corner Josh Norman. Meanwhile, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are at least willing to listen on offers for tight end O.J. Howard, but they would need to be blown away to actually execute a deal.
Some other names worth watching throughout the afternoon include receiver A.J. Green, wideout Robby Anderson and even running back Melvin Gordon. That said, those are just some of the many names that will be thrown into the rumor mill up until the actual deadline.
On top of the trades themselves, there will be plenty of other scuttlebutt that surrounds this deadline. We’re here to collect every newsworthy nugget, dissect it and break down what it means for both sides. To follow along with the latest happenings around the league, check out our live blog below.

49ers already made their splash with Sanders, the best move so far for my money. https://twitter.com/CamInman/s…
Seems like things are cooling down on the Jamal Adams front. Price simply may be too high. Obviously still time, but we’ll see. https://twitter.com/JosinaAnde…
20 minutes.
If Talib being moved is the biggest trade of the day …. I’m going to need a beer.
The jury is still out on whether or not deals actually get done, but this silence, to me, speaks volumes. Teams are talking and trying to get whatever trades they are working on done in time. Again, you and I many not find out about these deals until a few minutes after the actual 4:00 p.m. ET deadline.
Right now, it feels like we’re all waiting for the Jamal Adams move to come down. All other deals feel like they’ve cooled down. Wonder what is going on with Washington and Trent Williams.
Man, the suspense for this deadline is AMAZING! Feels like huge deals are coming right down to the wire.
45 minutes remaining …
Of course, that silence can change at a moments notice.
Seems really quiet right now. Teams are clearly in the final dash to the deadline.
That would be some pretty good theater https://twitter.com/MikeClayNF…
As we mentioned earlier, his contract is killer. No surprise that teams are staying away. https://twitter.com/john_keim/…
