The NFL isn’t known for having the most exciting trade deadline in the world, but with teams like the Tampa Bay Buccaneers having clear needs to help propel them in their championship aspirations, this year’s was poised to be one of the more active in some time.
And there were some moves made.
The Pittsburgh Steelers and Kansas City Chiefs got things going as we came out of the weekend with a deal struck, sending outside linebacker Melvin Ingram III to the defending AFC Champions.
Kansas City wasn’t done after that, trading for tight-end help as well, bringing Dan Brown in from the Jets, sending offensive lineman Laurent Duvernay-Tardif in exchange.
