The Jacksonville Jaguars landed Jordan Davis and Jessie Bates at the NFL trade deadline, but according to Adam Schefter and Ian Rapoport, the Buffalo Bills were also in on those players.
"The two teams that were most aggressive in trading for Eagles defensive tackle Jordan Davis were the Bills and Jaguars," Schefter and Rapoport wore.
Jacksonville and Buffalo both aggressively pursued Bates as well.
"The two teams most aggressive for former Falcons safety Jessie Bates also were the Bills and Jaguars," Schefter and Rapoport added.
To acquire Davis, the Jaguars parted with a 2027 first-round pick and a 2029 second-round pick. Landing Bates meant sending a 2027 second-round pick and a 2028 fifth-round pick to Atlanta.
The Bills ended up sending a 2027
second-round pick to Tennessee for safety Amani Hooker and a 2027 fifth-round pick.
The Jaguars and Bills are expected to be two of the contenders competing for an AFC Championship this season.
