The Chicago Bears don't have any interest in swapping running back Jordan Howard for Miami Dolphins receiver Jarvis Landry, sources told Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.

The two teams have discussed a player-for-player deal, John Mullin of NBS Sports Chicago reported Saturday, citing sources. Landry was franchise-tagged by the Dolphins last week, but was reportedly given permission to seek out a trade.

However, Rapoport reports the Bears have "zero desire" to trade Howard. The 23-year-old was second in the league in rushing in his rookie year in 2016 and followed that up with a 1,122-yard season.
