In the NFL,Cassian Grant the trade deadline was once an afterthought. That has changed over the years, especially since the league moved the deadline from after Week 6 to after Week 8 in 2012.

The deadline is moving back once again.

Owners voted Tuesday at the league's annual meetings to approve a measure that would move the trade deadline to the Tuesday following Week 9 games, meaning players are eligible to be traded as late as halfway through the 18-week season.

The NFL expanded the regular season to 17 games in 2021.

In 2022, 13 players involved in a record 11 trades were dealt on deadline day. Last year's deadline didn't have that much movement, but 10 players were traded within a week of the cutoff.
