Atlanta Falcons get: Edge Matthew Judon
New England Patriots get: 2025 third-round pick
The Falcons have landed the pass rusher they sought for years. The Patriots are trading Judon to the Falcons for a third-round draft pick, sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Judon had been seeking a new contract for 2025. The Falcons and Judon have not hammered out a contract for next season yet but plan to work toward one before the start of the season, a source told ESPN’s Dan Graziano.
Judon, who turns 32 this week, is a four-time Pro Bowler who had a career-high 15.5 sacks in 2022 following a 12.5-sack season in 2021. He missed most of last year with a torn bicep.
Cleveland Browns get: C Nick Harris, 2026 seventh-round pick
Seattle Seahawks get: 2026 sixth-round pick
The trade comes one day after the Browns lost backup center Luke Wypler to a fractured ankle. Harris — a fifth-round pick of Cleveland in 2020 — is a depth addition.
Minnesota Vikings get: CB Nahshon Wright
Dallas Cowboys get: CB Andrew Booth Jr.
The Cowboys and Vikings agreed Friday to exchange cornerbacks whose time had run out with their respective teams. The Cowboys will receive Booth, the No. 42 pick of the 2022 draft, who played only 11% of the Vikings’ defensive snaps over the past two seasons. The Vikings will take on Wright, a third-round pick in 2021 who played in just 22 games with three starts and one interception.
After inquiring about Brandon Aiyuk’s availability, the New England Patriots have decided not to explore any further trade possibilities with the San Francisco 49ers regarding their standout wide receiver, sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
The Patriots were one of three teams that had been in contact with the Niners about a potential trade for Aiyuk, along with the Cleveland Browns and Pittsburgh Steelers, sources told ESPN.
