Overview
- Chicago granted Edmunds permission to seek a trade, and ESPN reports he has strong market interest with a decent chance to be dealt.
- Trading or releasing him before the new league year would free about $15 million and avoid a $1 million roster bonus, with roughly $2.4 million in dead money.
- The Titans and Raiders have ample cap room to absorb his deal, while the Giants would likely need to create space to make a move.
- Media expectations peg a potential return in the late Day-3 range, though multiple interested teams could modestly improve the compensation.
- Edmunds, 27, is under contract through 2026 and is coming off a 2025 season with 112 tackles and four interceptions in 13 games.
