BREAKING NEWS: Patriots head coach was announced and confirmed dead due to

are currently all the rage in the NFL, with both Matthew Judon of the New England Patriots and Haason Reddick of the New York Jets at the center of trade buzz.

Reddick has asked for a trade less than six months after joining the Jets due to an impasse in contract negotiations. NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport first reported the news.

While Judon hasn’t requested a trade, the Pats DE is also hoping for a new and more lucrative contract — one he has yet to receive. And, as ESPN insider Jeremy Fowler noted on X on August 12, multiple teams have called the Patriots about a Judon trade.happy, Kristopher Knox of Bleacher Report put together several trades for both Judon and Reddick, and one would net the Pats an intriguing new wide receiver.

In one proposal, Knox has New England sending Judon to the Detroit Lions in exchange for wideout Donovan Peoples-Jones and a 2026 fourth-round draft pick.With All-Pro Aiden Hutchinson entering Year 3, adding Judon would give the Lions one of the best pass rushing duos in the NFL. Detroit could also afford to give Judon the salary bump he’s been seeking (his base salary is just under $8 million in 2024).

“The Lions may view Judon as a more budget-friendly alternative to Reddick. With $40.2 million in cap space, Detroit could afford to pay either pass-rusher, however,” Knox reasoned, adding:

“In this scenario, the Lions look to capitalize on New England’s need for wide receiver help. The Patriots are looking to develop rookie quarterback Drake Maye, and they had arguably the league’s worst receiving corps in 2023.”The Lions are an NFC contender, and Judon would surely prefer to be traded to a contending team than an awful one.

When asked about the trade rumors surrounding Judon on August 13, Patriots head coach Jerod Mayo gave no signs the team is discontent with or looking to trade the veteran pass rusher.
