The 2024 NFL trade deadline passed at 4 p.m. ET on Tuesday, and a few teams did squeeze in deals before it was over.
Arguably the most noteworthy move was the Washington Commanders' acquisition of four-time Pro Bowl cornerback Marshon Lattimore from the New Orleans Saints. The 28-year-old standout defender, who is under contract through 2026, was one of the most coveted players available.
The other big move on Tuesday involved the NFC-leading Detroit Lions, who added some pass-rushing help. Detroit secured the services of Za'Darius Smith from the Cleveland Browns.
Detroit was in need of another edge-rusher after losing Aidan Hutchinson to a season-ending leg fracture—the Lions had already lost Marcus Davenport for the season to an elbow injury.
