The Bills acquired safety Amani Hooker from the Titans in a trade involving a second-round pick.

Hooker, 28, has five interceptions this season, according to Music City Miracles. Accounts conflict on which team gave up the second-round pick: Buffalo Rumblings says Buffalo sent a 2027 second-rounder, while Music City Miracles says Tennessee received one. Titans GM Mike Borgonzi said he had turned down Bills GM Brandon Beane for a week before the deal came together, per NFL Network's Mike Garafolo.

Bills safety Amani Hooker, acquired from the Titans, may play in Week 10 against the Jets.

Buffalo acquired Hooker at Tuesday's trade deadline, and according to Buffalo Rumblings, coach Joe Brady said the team will take it day by day with him. To make room, the Bills restructured left tackle Dion Dawkins' salary, which ESPN's Field Yates reported as $5.3 million in cap relief.

Broncos and Chargers call off trade sending Daiyan Henley to Denver, and he stays with Los Angeles.

The deal, agreed at Tuesday's trade deadline for a 2027 fourth-round and 2028 fifth-round pick, was canceled late Wednesday, and neither team gave a reason. The trade was reportedly pending a physical, and ESPN reported Henley took one at the Broncos' facility Wednesday. Henley, who leads the 0-8 Chargers with 51 tackles, is in the final year of his rookie deal and is slated to become a free agent in March.

The Bengals and Eagles called off a trade that would have sent edge rusher Arnold Ebiketie to Cincinnati.

NBC Sports Philadelphia reported the deal would have canceled out a 2027 third-round compensatory pick the Bengals are due after losing Trey Hendrickson, since Ebiketie was signed by Philadelphia as a compensatory free agent. Bengals coach Zac Taylor apologized and said it was on Cincinnati's end. Ebiketie, 27, has played in all nine Eagles games with 25 tackles, two quarterback hits and no sacks.

That group apparently included Herbert, Geno Smith, and Daniel Jones.

Lock was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice with right elbow and quadriceps injuries, according to ProFootballTalk.

The Eagles traded defensive tackle Jordan Davis to the Jaguars for a 2027 first-round pick and a 2029 second-round pick.

Davis signed a three-year, $78 million extension eight months ago and had half a sack in the first eight weeks of this season, according to NBC Sports Philadelphia. The Athletic's Daniel Popper gave the Eagles an A+ and the Jaguars a D-, while CBS Sports' Garrett Podell gave the Eagles an A and the Jaguars a B-. The trade clears room to keep Moro Ojomo, and NBC Sports Philadelphia argues the Eagles should extend him.
