The New Orleans Saints are trading for New England Patriots wide receiver Ja’Lynn Polk, a source confirmed to ESPN on Saturday.
Polk, a 2024 second-round pick, is on injured reserve with a shoulder injury. He had 12 catches for 87 yards and two touchdowns in 15 games played last season as a rookie.
The Saints will receive Polk and a 2028 seventh-round pick, while the Patriots will receive a 2027 sixth-round pick.
This is the second wide receiver trade the Saints have made in the past month. They acquired Denver Broncos wideout Devaughn Vele in August. In return, Denver received a 2026 fourth-round pick and a 2027 seventh-round pick.
The Athletic first reported on the Saints’ trade for Polk.
