The latest NFL trade rumors have been centered around high-stakes players, including AJ Brown, Kayshon Boutte and Kayvon Thibodeaux, but these four players could receive interest. While everyone has their eyes set on the top trade market involving Brown, there are plenty of players who will be available more than usual. The June 1 designation for all teams across the 32 rosters will be a crucial time, and you never know who could be on the move. Alvin Kamara is an obvious name that keeps coming up, but this article will explore players who aren’t getting enough attention.
The biggest question is how much teams are willing to spend on these “under-the-radar” players. With OTAs getting underway and before teams start to turn to the free agent market, rosters will be adding potential trade candidates to strengthen their units. The good news is that these four players won’t be asking for a hefty contract, as most are entering the final year of their current deal. Let’s explore these four names that could be available soon.
NFL Trade Rumors: 4 Under-the-Radar Players on the Block
4. Jalin Hyatt, New York Giants
Let’s start with the forgotten speedster, who is looking for a fresh start. WR Jalin Hyatt is entering the final year of his rookie deal, and while he won’t garner much attention, he’s someone who needs to move on. The New York Giants overhauled their receiving unit, signing Darnell Mooney while drafting Malachi Fields in the third round this year. Hyatt still has sizable hands and versatility, who would be willing to be reliable in the slot.
He isn’t going to immediately strengthen the offense overnight, but he’d be a low-stakes option for a team that needs receiver depth.
3. Jeremy Chinn, Las Vegas Raiders
Jeremy Chinn is probably a unique gem that the Raiders could move at the right price. The veteran safety is also entering the final year of his deal, and could receive trade interest before the season. However, no one should be surprised if he’s moved during the 2026 campaign. Last year, Chinn finished the season with two pass deflections, two forced fumbles, one sack, and 114 combined tackles.
While he was placed on injured reserve in December for a back injury, he’s still reliable when healthy. After the team invested in the secondary, drafting Treydan Stukes, don’t be surprised if they move him, instead of Taron Johnson, who is skipping practice.
2. Kendre Miller, New Orleans Saints
Unfortunately, RB Kendre Miller is still recovering from a torn ACL from last year. This means the Saints won’t be moving him, but rather releasing him. Although they could keep him in the mix since the team is likely to trade Alvin Kamara, instead. While that’s the obvious, there’s a chance that they could stick with Kamara and new free agent signee Travis Etienne.
If Miller returns during the season and shows signs of life, the Saints could be willing to move him for a late-round pick.
1. Xavier Legette, Carolina Panthers
The ultimate underrated and most discussed young receiver: Xavier Legette. After the Carolina Panthers selected Chris Brazzell in the third round, it puts Legette on notice. Legette hasn’t been consistent the past two seasons, and with Tetairoa McMillan exploding, he could be phased out. If not before the 2026 season, the Panthers could easily trade him for a higher draft pick.
However, he should be getting plenty of interest with teams looking to strengthen their offensive arsenal. Legette is not a superhero or someone who could top 1,000 receiving yards in his first season with a new team like George Pickens, but the future is still shining for the young talent in the right environment.
