It's "highly unlikely" that the Carolina Panthers will trade wide receiver D.J. Moore, edge-rusher Brian Burns and defensive lineman Derrick Brown amid rumors that the team is listening to teams about offers for running back Christian McCaffrey.
Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported the news on Moore, Burns and Brown, noting that "they are considered building blocks for the future." ESPN's Adam Schefter reported the news on McCaffrey but wrote that "a deal might not be easy to complete." He also wrote that Carolina appears "unwilling" to deal Burns and Brown despite interest.
The Panthers have started this season 1-4, which prompted the firing of head coach Matt Rhule.
