Yannick Ngakoue Trade Rumors: Jaguars DE Drawing 'Some' Interest Before Deadline

Jacksonville Jaguars defensive end Yannick Ngakoue continues to seek a trade, and there is "some interest around the NFL" on a potential deal, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.

The Jaguars placed the franchise tag on the pass-rusher, which could be worth $17.8 million in 2020 on the one-year tender, but the two sides have until Wednesday's deadline to agree on a long-term deal.

As Jeremy Fowler of ESPN reported earlier this month, Ngakoue has asked for a trade and doesn't plan to sign the franchise tender or report to training camp.
