"In fact, the former second-round pick has been a trade target since the preseason, although the Falcons haven't shown any desire to trade him up to this point.

Caleb Ebiketie has drawn trade interest since the preseason, and Atlanta will listen to offers that could make him available for the right price. The former second-round pick recorded 12 sacks across 2023–24, with 24 QB hits and nine tackles for loss over that span, and earned a PFF grade ranking of 46th among qualifying edge defenders last season. A youth-focused 2025 defensive rotation has reduced his role behind James Pearce Jr. and others; Ebiketie has zero sacks and 21 stops this season, with a PFF rank of 52nd supported partly by his coverage grade. The 26-year-old will reach free agency after the season, making him a plausible, lower-cost fallback pass-rush target.
