The Story in 60 Seconds

Analysts have identified several wide receiver trade targets for the San Francisco 49ers ahead of the November 10 NFL trade deadline. With injuries heavily impacting the receiving corps, ESPN's Seth Walder suggested New York Jets wide receiver Adonai Mitchell as a potential addition. Meanwhile, CBS Sports' JP Acosta proposed Indianapolis Colts slot receiver Josh Downs and Tennessee Titans veteran Calvin Ridley as other options.

Mitchell recently posted a 142-yard, one-touchdown performance for the Jets, while Downs has compiled 228 career receptions over four seasons with Indianapolis. Ridley has managed only six receptions this season, but Acosta considers him a realistic option who could benefit from a change of scenery as general manager John Lynch considers potential moves.
