NFL Transactions Coverage Extended Back to 1994
We have recently made a small, but notable, improvement to Pro Football Reference: the extension of our coverage of transactions back to 1994. Previously, our transactions coverage went back to 2002, so this update includes eight seasons of new data. This update has also allowed us to beef up our coverage of trades, which has gone back to 1994 for many years, but which had some missing transactions. On player pages, we have distinct sections for trades and transactions, but we hope to merge these into one section in the future for more ease of use (and ease of maintenance!). In addition, this new data appears on our season pages, with a page for each month of transactions. For instance, here's January of 1994's NFL transactions. And here's the well-traveled Jeff George's player page with newly fleshed out transactions data.
We would like to thank Pete Palmer for collecting this data for us. It is something we will hopefully be able to extend even further back in the future.
