US EditionRams Finalizing Deal to Acquire All-Pro Cornerback Trent McDuffie From Chiefs
- On Mar 4, 2026, the Kansas City Chiefs agreed to trade All-Pro cornerback Trent McDuffie to the Los Angeles Rams for four draft picks, including the No. 29 pick, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported.
- Because extension talks stalled, Kansas City traded Trent McDuffie after his 2026 cap hit rose to over $13.6 million, following the Chiefs' pattern of trading top corners like L'Jarius Sneed.
- The former first-round pick, McDuffie, 25, earned First-Team All-Pro in 2023 and Second-Team All-Pro in 2024, with 63 tackles, seven pass defenses, and one interception in 2025.
- The Rams traded for McDuffie to improve their secondary, and reports say they plan a long-term extension to maximize Matthew Stafford's window, with Les Snead indicating an aggressive approach.
- Arriving days before free agency, the trade follows weeks of McDuffie rumors and signals Kansas City’s rebuild after missing playoffs and Mahomes’ injury, with cornerback Jaylen Watson becoming a free agent next week.
