The New England Patriots traded linebacker Marte Mapu to the Houston Texans for a 2027 sixth-round pick and a seventh-round pick.
The sixth-year player has started in all seven of his appearances this season. However, the team captain has seen his role reduced over the course of the season. Rookies Barrett Carter and Demetrius Knight Jr. have received the bulk of the team's defensive snaps. Wilson, a third-round pick in the 2020 draft, has been a pivotal member of Cincinnati's defense in the turnaround.
