Report: Seahawks discussing Julio trade with Falcons

The list of teams interested in trading for Julio Jones is growing.

The Seattle Seahawks have held discussions with the Atlanta Falcons about a move for the star wide receiver, sources told ESPN's Dianna Russini.

Quarterback Russell Wilson has also spoken with Jones about possibly playing together, Russini adds.

Jones has reportedly generated interest from several teams in recent weeks, including the Tennessee Titans, Los Angeles Rams, and New England Patriots. Some of the NFL's biggest stars have also publicly recruited the pass-catcher on social media.

He's reportedly available because the Falcons are looking to create financial flexibility. Atlanta would open up $15.3 million in cap space if the veteran is traded after June 1. The 32-year-old is currently signed through 2023 after inking a three-year, $66-million extension in 2019.

The contract talks between the Falcons and Jones in 2019 reportedly affected their relationship. Despite the two sides agreeing on a deal, the difficultly of the negotiations led to lingering tensions.

The seven-time Pro Bowler recently signaled the end of his time with the club during an interview with "Undisputed," telling Shannon Sharpe he's "outta there."

Jones became one of the NFL's top wide receivers soon after entering the league as the sixth overall pick in 2011. He's averaged 101 receptions for 1,528 yards and seven touchdowns per 16 games played.

The Seahawks already boast a dynamic wideout group, with DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett atop their depth chart. Seattle also addressed the position in this year's draft with its selection of D'Wayne Eskridge in the second round.
