Tennessee is rebuilding after their 1-7 start to the season. They already traded All-Pro defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons to the Chicago Bears and have now traded their other leader on the defense. The Titans have now acquired two first-round picks and a second-round pick from these trades, giving them the draft capital to acquire the players
they need to get back to playing competitively.
Meanwhile, the Bills are looking to improve a pass defense that has struggled at times this season. They gave up over 300 passing yards against the Los Angeles Rams and Las Vegas Raiders, but surrendered under 130 passing yards against the Baltimore Ravens and Minnesota Vikings.
Still, they recognized a need to improve their secondary, especially after letting CJ Gardner-Johnson go after his spitting incident. He also had not been playing well before the suspension. Amani Hooker is currently leading the NFL with five interceptions, three of which came in his last game against the Cincinnati Bengals.
