Colts' Star DT Buckner a Trade Deadline Target?
25 Oct
Summary
- DeForest Buckner is a potential trade candidate for the Colts.
- He is nearing free agency and playing at a high level.
- The 49ers are a possible trade destination for Buckner.
Indianapolis Colts defensive tackle DeForest Buckner stands out as a significant potential trade candidate as the NFL trade deadline nears. Buckner is entering the final year of his contract and is still performing at an elite level, making him a valuable acquisition for any team pursuing a championship.
Reports indicate that if the Colts decide to sell, Buckner is nearly guaranteed to be traded. His former team, the San Francisco 49ers, has been identified as a potential suitor, having previously traded him to Indianapolis after the 2019 season.
Despite their current 2-4 record, the Colts are reportedly focused on improving their standing this season. However, if these efforts prove unsuccessful in the upcoming weeks, players like Buckner could be moved to contending teams.
