The 2024 NFL trade deadline has arrived, marking a crucial decision day across the league.

With Tuesday's deadline looming at 4:00 p.m. ET, teams have one final opportunity to make a meaningful change in the season, whether it's making a splash on an established veteran or sending one out to bolster their draft capital or to improve their salary cap outlook. Several franchises have already benefited from this, securing contracts with big names, and more could follow in the coming hours.

USA TODAY Sports will provide live updates on the latest news, rumors and deals throughout Tuesday. So check back throughout the day for more updates.

The Cincinnati Bengals have added depth in the backfield as they prepare for a potential late-season run.

The Bengals are acquiring running back Khalil Herbert from the Chicago Bears in exchange for a 2025 seventh-round draft pick, a person with knowledge of the move told Tyler Dragon of USA TODAY Sports. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the deal was not yet official.

NFL Network's Tom Pelissero was the first to report the agreement.

The Bengals' prospects at running back Chase Brown were uncertain after Zack Moss was sidelined indefinitely with a neck injury that kept him out of Sunday's win over the Las Vegas Raiders. Moss 74 has rushed for 242 yards and two touchdowns so far this season.

Herbert, 26, has been a healthy player in the last two games for the Bears. He has just eight carries for 16 yards this season as starter D'Andre Swift and backup Roschon Johnson have done the bulk of the work. However, last season he managed 611 yards, averaging 4.6 yards per carry.

The Detroit Lions finally have their fill-in pass rusher.

The team acquired Za'Darius Smith from the Cleveland Browns on Tuesday, according to multiple reports. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported that Smith and a 2026 seventh-round draft pick are headed to the Lions, who in turn will receive a 2025 fifth-round draft pick and a 2026 sixth-round draft pick.

Lions coach Dan Campbell had admitted for weeks that the team was looking for a defensive replacement for Pro Bowl selection Aidan Hutchinson, who suffered a broken tibia and fibula against the Dallas Cowboys.

“I don’t think it’s just us,” Campbell said Monday. “I can tell you we're trying, (Lions general manager) Brad (Holmes) is trying, and we've really looked at everything. We made a lot of calls and he kept going, so we're going to do it.” See. We still have a bit of time here, so we'll see what happens.

Smith has five sacks in nine games so far this season.

The 2024 NFL trade deadline is Tuesday at 4:00 p.m. ET.

The deadline comes midseason because NFL owners voted in March to push the season back a week from its traditional spot on the league calendar. After Tuesday, teams cannot make official deals until the start of the new league year in March, but they can unofficially agree to deals after the season.
