Other teams were reportedly interested in Matthew Judon: The Patriots made news Wednesday night with the decision to trade four-time Pro Bowler Matthew Judon to the Falcons for a 2025 third-round pick.
This represents the end of a New England training camp subplot in which Judon sought — but was not given — a new contract that he felt was worthy of his value. And according to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, Atlanta wasn’t the only potential trade partner.
Per Fowler, the Bears and Texans had varying interest in the 32-year-old Judon.
“While the Bears were heavily involved in [Matthew] Judon trade talks, the Texans also showed some interest,” noted Fowler.
