When is the NFL trade deadline in 2024?

Despite the deadline arriving around the midway point of the season, several teams have already kick-started the trade market with some early acquisitions.

The New York Jets acquired star wide receiver Davante Adams in a trade with the Las Vegas Raiders last Tuesday. Later that same day, the Buffalo Bills completed a trade with the Cleveland Browns for receiver Amari Cooper. Both wideouts played their first game for their new teams during Week 7 games.

By the time Week 9 action is over, all 32 teams’ front offices will need to have decided if they’re going to make a push for playoff – and Super Bowl – contention. Those best set up for a playoff run may add more star power to their teams as deadline buyers, while others may opt to be deadline sellers and build draft capital by trading veteran players as they rebuild their rosters.

When the NFL trade deadline passes, there will also be several teams that ended up standing pat – not making any moves in one direction or the other.
