Overview
- New York sent CB Sauce Gardner to the Colts and DL Quinnen Williams to the Cowboys on deadline day.
- The returns include three first‑round picks across 2026 and 2027, at least one second‑rounder, WR Adonai Mitchell and DT Mazi Smith.
- GM Darren Mougey said the team still intends to compete and win this season despite the sell‑off.
- The moves extend a season defined by a 1‑7 start and a 14‑year playoff drought that remains the NFL’s longest active streak.
- CBS reports it is the first time this millennium a team made multiple in‑season trades for first‑round picks, with the 2027 pick from Dallas reported as the better of the Cowboys’ two and potentially high in the round.
