Three struggling NFL teams weigh trades as the 10 November deadline approaches, with stars including Garrett Wilson and Khalil Mack drawing interest.

As the NFL trade deadline of 10 November approaches, three struggling teams face difficult decisions about their seasons. The Chargers enter Week 8 without a win, yet the front office has turned away teams interested in trade talks. NFL insider Ian Rapoport said the Bears are interested in Khalil Mack, and that 'the Chargers haven't signaled a willingness to sell like the Colts have, yet'.

Garrett Wilson made clear he does not plan to request a trade from the Jets, who are 2-5. However, he emphasised that winning matters more to him than his contentment with New York. 'I want to win games and that's the one thing we've been missing on here,' Wilson said after practice. 'Do I love it more than I love winning? Naw, to be completely honest.' He added that losses hurt more after years of optimism about the team's future.

The Raiders, at 3-4 after a 3-0 start, are in a middle ground between contenders and pretenders. Head coach Klint Kubiak said the team discusses potential trade scenarios 'every day' ahead of the deadline. The Raiders could use upgrades at wide receiver and on the offensive and defensive lines, according to their staff's assessment of roster needs.
