Rams, Titans reportedly interested in Falcons All-Pro WR Julio Jones

The interest in Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones continues to skyrocket as June 1 approaches. 

The Los Angeles Rams and Tennessee Titans are reportedly interested in Jones, according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo. However, a trade doesn't appear to be imminent and the Titans are reportedly considered a long shot to land him. 

Jones reportedly requested a trade from the Falcons earlier this offseason and he essentially confirmed his departure from Atlanta during a live phone call with FS1's Shannon Sharpe, saying, "I'm out of there." 

The Falcons are reportedly seeking a first-round pick in exchange for the 32-year-old, which means the Rams might be at a disadvantage if other clubs are willing to pay that price. L.A. doesn't hold a first-round pick in 2022 or 2023 after acquiring Matthew Stafford from the Detroit Lions. 

The Rams and Titans also aren't the only teams interested in Jones. According to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler, people in league circles say the San Francisco 49ers are discussed most often as a trade fit for the seven-time Pro Bowler. 

The New England Patriots have also reportedly held internal discussions about a trade for Jones and the Baltimore Ravens might reportedly consider throwing their name into the ring if it makes sense. 

Jones won't be traded until after June 1 and, according to ESPN's Dianna Russini, a deal could happen as soon as this week.
