How Aiden Hutchinson's contract extension helps the Buccaneers at the trade deadline

As the Tampa Bay Buccaneers approach this year's NFL trade deadline on November 4, there is a good amount of fans who would like to see the team trade for an edge rusher. With Haason Reddick in the midst of an injury that has him labeled "week to week," the Bucs need some immediate help.

Even after Reddick is back, though, adding another top-tier pass rusher should be a priority for a team that wants to finally get over the hump in the postseason. Fortunately, one fellow NFC contender just gave the Bucs a bit of a lift.
