NFL trade deadline is Tuesday; Saints' Chase Young and Kendre Miller are names in rumors.
Per The Athletic, quoted by SB Nation, the Saints could part ways with RB Kendre Miller once Travis Etienne Jr. is available, and safety Justin Reid is a possible target. Fan posts say the Bears and 49ers have checked in on DE Chase Young, with a steep price reportedly. Behind the Steel Curtain, a fan blog, says Mason Rudolph has been named a possible trade piece for the 6-2 Steelers, and Baltimore Beatdown says the Ravens are working to acquire Jacoby Brissett from the Cardinals, not yet finalized.
