With so many teams in the mix at the halfway point with the expanded playoffs, there was plenty of activity by contenders.
Deadline day was highlighted by the Washington Commanders acquiring four-time Pro Bowl cornerback Marshon Lattimore from the New Orleans Saints and the Detroit Lions adding edge rusher Za'Darius Smith from the Cleveland Browns.
The Pittsburgh Steelers also got into the action on Tuesday by making a pair of moves that netted receiver Mike Williams from the Jets and pass rusher Preston Smith from the Packers.
There were also a handful of smaller deals in the closing minutes before the deadline, which followed some more significant trades that took place in the prior weeks.
Most notable were three wide receiver additions: the Jets struck a deal for WR Davante Adams from the Raiders; the Bills added WR Amari Cooper from the Browns; and the Chiefs brought in WR DeAndre Hopkins from the Titans.
Here's a full list of the trades that went down this season, beginning with the most recent:
49ers get DT Khalil Davis from Texans for seventh-round pick
Ravens improve secondary with CB Tre’Davious White from Rams
Steelers add D-line depth with Preston Smith from Packers
Steelers bolster WR corps with Mike Williams from Jets
Commanders send Saints three picks for CB Marshon Lattimore
Cowboys get WR Jonathan Mingo from Panthers amid pick swap
Bengals add RB Khalil Herbert for seventh-rounder from Chicago
Lions help pass rush by adding Za'Darius Smith from Browns
Cardinals add LB Baron Browning from Broncos for sixth-round pick
Vikings bolster O-line with Cam Robinson addition
Ravens acquire WR Diontae Johnson from Panthers for Day 3 pick
Chiefs trade for LB Joshua Uche, send sixth-round pick to Patriots
Chiefs trade for WR DeAndre Hopkins, send conditional fifth-rounder to Titans
Seahawks, Titans swap LBs as Ernest Jones IV goes to Seattle and Jerome Baker heads to Tennessee
Vikings acquire RB Cam Akers for conditional Day 3 pick
Browns trade WR Amari Cooper to Bills for pair of draft picks
Jets acquire Davante Adams for conditional third-round pick
Seahawks acquire DL Roy Robertson-Harris from Jaguars for sixth-round pick
The story of this deadline is also about the deals that didn't get done.
While there were rumors about 2023 No. 1 overall pick Bryce Young being dealt, the Panthers opted to stick with their quarterback. The same went for the Colts and QB Anthony Richardson, who reportedly drew interest from other teams.
Cooper Kupp's name was also thrown around in trade rumors, but the Rams are still connected in the NFC wild-card race, particularly after Sunday's overtime win in Seattle, and head coach Sean McVay says he wouldn't want the Super Bowl 56 MVP to leave Los Angeles.

Jags QB Trevor Lawrence will be limited in practice on Wednesday
Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence is "sore," according to head coach Doug Peterson, and will practice on Wednesday, but in a limited capacity.
As for Lawrence's status for Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings, Peterson said it is too early to say whether the quarterback will play.
Lawrence was injured during Sunday's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. He was seen getting treatment on the sideline and looked to injure his shoulder in the second quarter.
“A little beat up this time of the year, but relatively alright. So, we’ll assess, obviously, tomorrow morning. Some soreness sets in, and we’ll see what we’re dealing with," Lawrence said afterward. "But I was able to finish the game and felt okay. And I know there’s a lot of guys dealing with stuff, and we just have to keep pushing through. It’s that time of the year, middle of the season, and it’s tough.”
C.J. Beathard has been signed by the Jaguars from the Miami Dolphins' practice squad as insurance and to add to the team's depth at the position. The 30-year-old quarterback was released by the team in the preseason after he suffered to a groin injury

With the NFL trade deadline looming, here’s an interesting development:

Lions trading for pass-rusher Za'Darius Smith
Za'Darius Smith is being traded from the Browns to the Lions. (Eric Hartline-Imagn Images) The Lions have been looking for a new pass-rusher ever since they lost Aidan Hutchinson to a broken leg in Week 6, and Tuesday they found one in Za'Darius Smith.
The Lions traded with the Browns to bring Smith to Detroit, reportedly sending a 2025 fifth-round pick and a 2026 sixth-round draft pick to Cleveland, while Cleveland is sending Smith and a 2026 seventh-round pick.
Smith was among the top pass-rushers in demand at the NFL trade deadline and is under contract through the 2025 season, reflecting what the Lions had to trade to get him.
Smith has five sacks in nine games with the Browns this season with 23 tackles, five tackles for loss and six quarterback hits. During his NFL career, Smith has compiled 65 sacks in 181 games (88 starts) over 10 seasons with the Baltimore Ravens, Green Bay Packers, Minnesota Vikings and Browns.
Report: Dak Prescott to miss multiple weeks with hamstring injury

Griffin/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images) This might influence what the Cowboys do or don't do in the walk-up to the NFL trade deadline on Tuesday: Quarterback Dak Prescott's hamstring injury is more serious than initially projected, and he's expected to miss multiple weeks, per NFL Network's Tom Pelissero.
In an analysis of the Cowboys' trade deadline prospects, Yahoo Sports' Jori Epstein wrote:
If the Cowboys are trading to help a 2024 roster that has sustained injuries to its two top players on offense and three top players on defense, the decision seems short-sighted. At 3-5, the Cowboys have a 4 percent chance of making the playoffs, per The Athletic’s playoff predictor. Competing against the 7-2 Washington Commanders and 6-2 Philadelphia Eagles, the Cowboys’ chance of winning the NFC East is less than 1 percent. This franchise has reached the playoffs each of the past three years. A mere playoff berth, that Dallas looks unlikely to win, does not support the development cost.
Reports: Saints have received calls on CB Marshon Lattimore
Teams have reportedly called the Saints about defensive back Marshon Lattimore. (Photo by Michael Owens/Getty Images) While the #Saints fired Dennis Allen after a seven-game losing streak, it doesn't sound like it'll be a firesale before tomorrow's trade deadline. They have gotten calls and could move the likes of CB Marshon Lattimore. But a widespread selloff seems unlikely.

With New Orleans firing Dennis Allen, questions remain about what the Saints will do before the 4 p.m. ET trade deadline, as the team holds a 2-7 record. Pro Bowl CB Marshon Lattimore is among the players teams have inquired about. https://t.co/HlfspDo8s0

Saints fire head coach Dennis Allen after 2-7 start
After falling to a 2-7 record, the New Orleans Saints are making some big moves ahead of the trade deadline — on the coaching staff.
The Saints fired head coach Dennis Allen on Monday after three seasons. New Orleans started off well, going 2-0 to start the season, but have lost their last seven, including games against mediocre opponents (Denver Broncos, Carolina Panthers) that could — or perhaps should — have been easy wins.
(AP Photo/Rusty Jones) With Allen out, special teams coach Darren Rizzi will take over as interim head coach.

Jerry Jones hints at potential trade deadline activity
The 3-5 Dallas Cowboys have been falling short of expectations, capped by a loss to the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday. As the team struggles with the run game, red zone defense and other key areas on the field, owner Jerry Jones should be looking to make a few moves before the deadline.
“We’ll probably do a couple things this week,” Jones told reporters outside the postgame locker room, per Yahoo Sports' Jori Epstein. “If things work out for us the way we’d like for them to.”
(AP Photo/ Brynn Anderson) With the season on the line — plus Dak Prescott being questionable with an injury — Cowboys will have to figure how to treat these trades, and whether to go for long-term or short-term success.

Seven NFL teams that should make a play for Bryce Young
One big trade target for this deadline is Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young. The 23-year-old play-caller has struggled to gain his footing at Carolina, but has made steps forward in recent weeks. With the Panthers tepid about Young's future with the team, there are a number of teams who could use a young talent like Young.

Report: Lions close to deal for Browns' Za'Darius Smith
Browns defensive end Za'Darius Smith could be on the move before Tuesday's deadline. (AP Photo/Kirk Irwin) Everyone knew the Detroit Lions were in the market for a defensive lineman after star Aidan Hutchinson suffered a season-ending leg injury on Oct. 13. Could that remedy be the Cleveland Browns' Za'Darius Smith?
Per a source with knowledge of the situation, the current expectation is that Smith will be traded to Detroit tonight [Sundayor tomorrow.
Smith, 32, has played for the Ravens, Packers, and Vikings. He has said he'd welcome a trade to Detroit, since it would allow him to compete directly with two of his former teams.
