Recent NFL trade rumors have stirred up excitement among fans, particularly concerning New York Jets star wide receiver Garrett Wilson and Chicago Bears receiver DJ Moore. Reports suggest that the Chicago Bears and New York Jets were engaged in extensive negotiations, ultimately leading to a blockbuster trade agreement.
Garrett Wilson to the Bears?
The Chicago Bears have been aggressively seeking offensive weapons to support their potential new quarterback, possibly Caleb Williams in the upcoming NFL Draft. According to reports, the Bears have successfully traded for Garrett Wilson in exchange for a 2026 first-round pick and a young receiver from their roster. While the identity of the young receiver remains undisclosed, speculation suggests that Darnell Mooney or Tyler Scott could be involved.
Wilson, a former first-round pick and the 2022 Offensive Rookie of the Year, has been one of the few bright spots for the Jets’ struggling offense. However, with continued quarterback instability and frustrations mounting, many believed Wilson could request a trade. The move to Chicago would give him a fresh start and provide the Bears with an elite receiving option.
DJ Moore to the Chiefs?
Adding to the drama, reports also suggest that DJ Moore has requested a trade to the Kansas City Chiefs. The Chiefs, fresh off another Super Bowl win, are desperate for a top-tier wide receiver to complement Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce. Moore, who was traded to Chicago in 2023 as part of the Panthers’ deal for the No. 1 overall pick, had an outstanding season with the Bears but may be looking for a championship-contending team.
If Moore moves to Kansas City, the Chiefs would significantly upgrade their receiving corps, solving their wide receiver inconsistency issues that plagued them last season. However, as of now, there is no official confirmation that Moore has formally requested a trade.
Final Thoughts
These trade rumors are generating significant buzz, but nothing has been confirmed by NFL insiders or the teams involved. The NFL offseason is full of surprises, and while these moves could reshape the league, fans should wait for official announcements before getting too excited. If true, these trades could have a major impact on the 2025 NFL season, shaking up both the AFC and NFC.
