Zach Wilson, who has been on the trading block by the New York Jets since the start of the offseason, is skipping voluntary workouts as he remains in limbo with the NFL draft approaching next week.

Wilson was granted permission in February to speak to teams about a potential trade.

The Jets already replaced him on the roster, having signed veteran Tyrod Taylor as Aaron Rodgers' backup.

The New England Patriots are open to trading the No. 3 pick in the 2024 NFL draft, but are also comfortable keeping the selection for a quarterback. 

Eliot Wolf described trade discussions with other teams as "ongoing" while adding: "We have some holes we feel like we need to fill in the draft. We're a draft-and-develop team; the more picks we have, the better."

The Patriots enter next week's draft with eight total selections, headlined by the No. 3 pick and selections at the top of the second (No. 34) and third (68) rounds. 

Caleb Williams is expected to go No. 1 to the Chicago Bears, while the Washington Commanders are widely expected to pick Jayden Daniels at No. 2. The Patriots could consider Drake Maye, J.J. McCarthy or Michael Penix Jr. at No. 3.

The Minnesota Vikings have the No. 11 and No. 23 overall picks in this month's NFL Draft, but they won't be in position to draft a potential franchise-changing quarterback.

Rick Spielman, the team's former general manager and current CBS analyst, believes the Vikings would have to part ways with a huge haul in order to take a quarterback like J.J. McCarthy.

"I heard a lot of things that Minnesota thought he had an excellent pro day up there and fits exactly what Kevin O'Connell wants to do from an offensive standpoint," Spielman said on the 'With the First Pick" podcast. "But they're just not gonna get it with the two first-round picks.

"They're gonna have to throw in their first-round pick in 2025, plus some more draft capital, to do what they have to do to go up and get it." 

Sam Darnold is currently the Vikings starting quarterback. 

The Houston Texans have agreed to acquire Stefon Diggs from the Buffalo Bills for Minnesota's 2025 second round pick. The Texans will also receive a 2024 sixth round pick and a 2025 fifth round pick.

Digs signed a four-year, $96 million contract extension with the Bills in 2022. There was an expectation that Diggs and the Bills would restructure his contract this offseason. Buffalo will carry a $31 million dead cap number in 2024 following the trade.

During the 2023 season, Diggs caught 107 balls for 1,183 yards and eight touchdowns. 

Diggs is represented by Adisa Bakari.

The New York Jets currently hold the No. 10 pick in this month's NFL Draft.

According to a report, the Jets would like to field trade proposals from quarterback-needy teams behind them in the draft order.

New York could acquire another top-100 pick in such a trade to help them this season. The Jets only have two picks in the top-100 (No. 10 and No. 72) at the moment.

Justin Fields had four teams on his radar when it became apparent that the Chicago Bears would trade him.

Fields landed with one of those teams, the Pittsburgh Steelers, but the quarterback also had interested in joining the Atlanta Falcons, Las Vegas Raiders and Minnesota Vikings.

NFL owners agreed Tuesday to move the trade deadline back one week to the Tuesday after Week 9.

In addition, they also agreed to allow teams to use a practice squad player as their emergency No. 3 quarterback on game days, after requiring that player to be an existing member of the 53-man roster last season. 

The Minnesota Vikings are undergoing a change at quarterback this offseason, but they still hope to be in playoff contention in 2024.

Vikings owner/president Mark Wilf made clear that his family still thinks the team should build for the future while winning in the present. He acknowledged that injuries played a role in last season's record but said that his family is "not going to rest on that."

"We want to win every single game and every step along the way," Wilf said. "So how that falls, what will happen on the field, we'll see. It's important our fans to know that that's always our commitment and that's how we approach it. At the same time, we believe the way we're building this is going to get to sustained success. We're, like our fans, not pleased with our record last year. We want to be competing for playoffs, championships, division titles and Super Bowl championships, all of the above."

Wilf added that the Vikings made Kirk Cousins a "serious offer" to remain with the team. Minnesota replaced Cousins with free agent Sam Darnold and are hoping to draft their quarterback of the future next month.

Asked what made him believe the Vikings could win and compete for a playoff spot amid that transition, Wilf said: "I think it can happen. I believe it can happen. I believe it has happened in other organizations as well, and that's what we think can happen."

Standing on the sideline at Michigan's pro day last week, San Francisco 49ers general manager John Lynch and Pittsburgh Steelers coach Mike Tomlin shared a laugh when Tomlin brought up Niners wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk.

Speculation about Aiyuk's future with the team has persisted for more than a year and reached a crescendo this offseason as Aiyuk prepares for the final year on his rookie contract. That includes rumored trades all over the NFL map, including to Tomlin's Steelers.

Several teams have expressed interest in trading for Philadelphia Eagles pass rusher Haason Reddick, according to a report.

The Eagles granted Reddick permission to seek a trade while pursuing a new contract.

Reddick has one season left on the three-year deal he signed prior to the 2022 season.
