Panthers defender has reportedly come up in trade talks
Derrick Brown's name is popping up in regards to the NFL trade deadline. But another Panthers DL has reportedly been the subject of some talks.
As the NFL trade deadline approaches, Derrick Brown's name has been circulating in trade talks for the Carolina Panthers. However, it is possible that another Panther defender, Bobby Brown III, could be on the move. According to Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated, the defensive tackle market is currently "hot" and Bobby Brown III might be attracting interest.
Washington's Daron Payne was previously drawing attention, but he is now sidelined with an injury. Other potential candidates include Grover Stewart, Davon Godchaux from the Saints, Nathan Shepherd from the Patriots, and Christian Barmore from the Patriots. The Philadelphia Eagles have ruled out trades for Moro Ojomo, while the Miami Dolphins have done the same with Zach Sieler.
Brown is currently in the second year of a three-year, $21 million contract with the Panthers. Despite a few injuries and underwhelming performance, the Panthers have started him in six of their 22 regular-season games since signing him. Brown has accumulated 38 combined tackles and half a sack. The New York Giants, Jacksonville Jaguars, and Minnesota Vikings have all shown interest in defensive tackles in the league.
