When it comes to acquiring talent, the NFL is quite different than the NBA and other professional sports leagues. The lack of flexibility and strict salary cap rules keep the league competitive and as a result, more unpredictable than the others. So once elite talent becomes available, teams act quickly in making their move.
Nobody can trade for Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones until June 2, but players are shooting their shot at recruiting the future Hall of Famer. Titans running back Derrick Henry, Cardinals receiver DeAndre Hopkins and others have expressed interest in teaming up with Jones.
The latest pitch comes from Titans wide receiver AJ Brown, who dropped this epic TikTok video explaining to Julio why he needs to come to Tennessee.
A.J. Brown really wants Julio in Tennessee 😅

Jones isn’t a free agent, however, it’s believed he will have some say on where he gets traded to. The Titans, Patriots and Raiders are believed to be among the favorites to land Atlanta’s All-Pro receiver.
