The two receivers drawing the most interest ahead of NFL trade deadline
NY Post
With Davante Adams, Amari Cooper and DeAndre Hopkins off the board, two other receivers are getting league-wide intrigue.
Christian Kirk of the Jacksonville Jaguars and Diontae Johnson of the Carolina Panthers are both candidates to be moved ahead of the Nov. 5 NFL trade deadline and are drawing interest around the league, according to ESPN.
The report comes in light of the Rams’ Cooper Kupp being reportedly taken off the trade market.
ESPN notes that the Panthers have received “multiple inquiries” regarding Johnson, with Carolina looking to receive a mid-round pick in the NFL draft in return for the former Pittsburgh Steeler, who enters Week 8 with 30 receptions for 357 yards and three touchdowns.
The 1-6 Panthers are heavy underdogs Sunday against the Denver Broncos.
In addition to Johnson, who is expected to be a free agent after the season, Kirk is gaining traction in trade talks.
