The San Francisco 49ers have made one trade ahead of the Nov. 10 deadline, reuniting with former defensive lineman DeForest Buckner in a deal with the Indianapolis Colts. Among the names linked to potential trades is New York Jets wideout Garrett Wilson.

Wilson addressed media on Oct. 28, acknowledging the trade speculation surrounding his name. He emphasized his focus on controlling what he can, such as executing his role on the field.

Wilson stated he has no insight into the Jets' plans regarding his future. He noted that the NFL trade landscape is shaped by performance and results, with teams making moves based on their current standing.

This season, Wilson has recorded 37 receptions for 444 yards and three touchdowns. He has also generated 110 yards after the catch, averaging 12.0 yards per reception.

Analysts have suggested the 49ers could be a viable trade destination for Wilson, with former Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson citing the team as one of two potential landing spots.

Despite the speculation, Wilson remains focused on his responsibilities, vowing to 'run good routes, catch the ball when it’s thrown my way, and have a good impact on my teammates.'
