Julio Jones traded to the Tennessee Titans [View all]

The Atlanta Falcons agreed to trade star wide receiver Julio Jones to the Tennessee Titans on Sunday.

In exchange for Jones, the Titans will send a 2022 second-round draft pick and a 2023 fourth-round selection to the Falcons. Along with Jones, the Falcons will send a 2023 sixth-round pick to the Titans.

The deal is pending a physical, the Titans said. Robinson said talks picked up Saturday before the two teams agreed to terms Sunday. Besides Jones passing a physical, Robinson said the Titans also have work to do to fit Jones' contract under their salary cap. Robinson indicated that would likely be through restructuring contracts and not cutting players.

Titans players Derrick Henry and A.J. Brown have expressed on social media their interest in having Jones as a teammate. Late last month, Brown posted a TikTok video to Jones explaining why the Titans would be the perfect fit for the star receiver.
