NFL Trade Deadline day is upon us, and the New England Patriots might be pretty active before the buzzer sounds at 4 p.m.

FOXBOROUGH — After days of swirling trade rumors, the Patriots stood pat as Tuesday’s deadline passed. Eliot Wolf got calls on a number of New England’s veteran players, but ultimately, Josh Uche wound up the team’s lone in-season trade.

Their lone move came about a week before when they sent linebacker Joshua Uche to the Kansas City Chiefs for a 2026 sixth-round pick.
