Despite receiving trade interest from his former team, DeForest Buckner appears likely to finish out this season with the Indianapolis Colts.

Per The Athletic's Dianna Russini, the Colts have told inquiring teams they aren't moving the three-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle before Tuesday's trade deadline.

Russini reported on Oct. 26 that Buckner was among the trade targets being discussed by the San Francisco 49ers, but there was no indication at that point the Colts were looking to deal him.

The 49ers need help along their defensive line, particularly on the interior.
