2024 NFL Trade Deadline More Active Than 2023

The NFL trade deadline passed on Tuesday with more midseason movement than last year, but fewer than the record number of trades in 2022.

The NFL trade deadline passed on Tuesday with more midseason movement than last year, but down from the record number of trades in 2022.

Several significant, highly paid players found new homes—many at perceived contenders—ahead of Tuesday’s deadline.  

The Commanders gave up several draft picks for four-time Pro Bowl cornerback Marshon Lattimore, as the 2–7 Saints shipped off their star defender a day after firing head coach Dennis Allen. The Lions acquired outside linebacker Za’Darius Smith from the Browns, filling a void left in Detroit’s pass rush after Aidan Hutchinson sustained a season-ending foot injury last month.

Previously, the Jets traded for star wideout Davante Adams and the Chiefs added DeAndre Hopkins, who scored his first two touchdowns for Kansas City on Monday night against the Buccaneers.

In total, 19 players were traded between the season kicking off Sept. 5 and Tuesday’s deadline. That’s three shy of the record 22 players traded during the 2022 season, which is the most ever, according to Front Office Sports research. 

Here’s a snapshot of the number of in-season trades this decade:

  • 2024: 19
  • 2023: 16
  • 2022: 22
  • 2021: 16
  • 2020: 15

Other notable deadline moves Tuesday included the Rams sending cornerback Tre’Davious White to the Ravens, the Texans acquiring Khalil Davis from the 49ers, and the Steelers adding receiver Mike Williams, who fell out of favor with Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
