The New England Patriots’ intention to trade Matthew Judon to the Seattle Seahawks is not yet confirmed.Judon’s contract predicament and the Patriots’ prospective rebuilding phase have been the main causes of trade rumors.
With a contract that is about to expire, he is making $6.5 million, which is less than what a player of his quality should be paid. Judon has declared he won’t back down during required team activities in spite of this.
If the Patriots choose to sell Judon, reports indicate that teams like the Detroit Lions, Atlanta Falcons, and Kansas City Chiefs would be interested in trading for him instead of the Seattle Seahawks. In particular, the Chiefs are thought to be a good landing point since they need a consistent pass rusher to bolster their defensive line as they try to win another Super Bowl.
Judon is still with the Patriots for the time being, so any trade speculations need to be treated with caution until more solid information becomes available.
There has been some discussion regarding the New England Patriots and the Seattle Seahawks possibly trading Matthew Judon, although this seems to be more conjecture than a formal agreement. The fact that Judon, who is in the last year of his contract, skipped voluntary exercises and showed interest in a new agreement stoked trade rumors.
Although Judon is 32 years old and the Patriots are in the midst of rebuilding, they may decide to trade him despite having the cap room to do so.
Although there are hints that the Patriots would gain from dealing Judon, particularly if they acquire high draft picks, no formal confirmation or thorough report on an impending trade to the Seahawks or any other team has been made
