The Brief

  • 15 players are expected to be key targets in trades before the Nov. 10 deadline.
  • Several teams have already made trades, including the Rams, Seahawks, and Bears.
  • Quarterbacks, running backs, and defensive players are among the most sought after.

The NFL trade deadline is approaching on Nov. 10, with multiple teams already making trades and more expected. The Los Angeles Rams, Seattle Seahawks, and Chicago Bears have been active in recent weeks, with players like Quenton Nelson, Jeffery Simmons, and DeForest Buckner being moved.

Among the players expected to be in play are several quarterbacks, including Jacoby Brissett of the Arizona Cardinals, Shedeur Sanders of the Cleveland Browns, and Saquon Barkley of the Philadelphia Eagles. Brissett is now the backup to Gardner Minshew, who has started for the Cardinals, while Sanders is reportedly not likely to be traded.

Running backs Jonathan Taylor of the Indianapolis Colts and Tony Pollard of the Tennessee Titans are also among the key names to watch. Taylor is expected to be traded after the Colts sent away several other players, while Pollard has been a strong performer for the Titans despite his team's poor record.

Wide receivers like Brian Thomas Jr. of the Jacksonville Jaguars and Josh Downs of the Colts are also in the mix, with both players showing potential for a trade.
