The 2025 NFL trade deadline is fast approaching, as the 32 member clubs have until 4:00 p.m. Eastern on Tuesday, November 4, to finalize trades.
We will be tracking all the moves ahead of the deadline here. Follow along to see what teams are loading up for a playoff push, and what teams are already thinking about the 2026 NFL Draft.
For grades on the deals, we have you covered here.
Dolphins trade EDGE Jaelan Phillips to the Eagles
Howie Roseman is absolutely not done trying to improve the defense in Philadelphia.
After being linked to several pass rushers, including Myles Garrett, Roseman lands Jaelan Phillips in a trade, acquiring the pass rusher from the Miami Dolphins in exchange for a 2026 third-round pick. The move reunites Phillips with Vic Fangio, who was his defensive coordinator during the 2023 season. That year, Phillips had 6.5 sacks in just eight games, before his season ended due to a torn Achilles.
As for the Dolphins, after parting ways with general manager Chris Grier, this might be the first sign that the philosophy is going to change in Miami, and the team will start thinking about 2026 and beyond under interim GM Champ Kelly.
Ravens trade CB Jaire Alexander to Eagles
Two days after trading for a cornerback, the Philadelphia Eagles added another option in the secondary.
Howie Roseman sent a 2026 sixth-round pick to the Baltimore Ravens in exchange for veteran cornerback Jaire Alexander. The cornerback signed with the Ravens in June, but has played in just two games this season.
Jets trade CB Michael Carter to Eagles for WR John Metchie III
The Philadelphia Eagles pulled off a trade to add another option in the secondary, sending WR John Metchie III and a 2027 sixth-round pick to the New York Jets for cornerback Michael Carter II and a 2027 seventh-round pick.
Philadelphia has two standout young cornerbacks with Quinyon Mitchell on the outside and Cooper DeJean in the slot, but are looking for an upgrade across from Mitchell. Adoree’ Jackson and Kelee Ringo have manned that spot so far this season, but Carter could slide into the slot while DeJean moves outside.
Patriots trade S Kyle Dugger to Steelers
The New England Patriots are trading safety Kyle Dugger and a seventh-round pick to the Pittsburgh Steelers in exchange for a sixth-round pick.
New England signed Dugger to a four-year contract extension worth up to $58 million in April of 2024, but the safety has struggled to fit into the adjusted defensive scheme under head coach Mike Vrabel.
Pittsburgh lost safety DeShon Elliott to a leg injury in last Sunday’s loss to the Green Bay Packers, and the injury could keep Elliott sidelined for the rest of the season.
Patriots trade EDGE Keion White to 49ers
The Dugger trade was not the only deal that New England made on Tuesday. The Patriots also sent pass rusher Keion White to the San Francisco 49ers along with a 2026 seventh-round pick in exchange for a 2026 sixth-round pick.
White had five sacks last season, and the 49ers desperately needed help up front after losing Nick Bosa for the season with a knee injury.
Titans trade CB Roger McCreary to Rams
The Tennessee Titans have begun retooling for next season, sending cornerback Roger McCreary to the Los Angeles Rams.
Tennessee will receive a conditional 2026 fifth-round pick in the deal, while the Rams will receive a conditional 2026 sixth-round pick along with the cornerback. According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Titans will receive the Rams’ earliest fifth-round pick (which is likely to be the pick the Titans sent Los Angeles in a trade for Ernest Jones in August of 2024).
The Rams currently have three sixth-round picks in 2026, and the least favorable of those will go to the Titans as part of this deal. At the moment, that is Los Angeles’ own selection in the sixth round (as the Rams also have sixth-round picks thanks to deals with the Jets and the Texans).
