Now sitting at 2-7 for the first time in 14 years, the Philadelphia Eagles front office is starting to get the itch to salvage what they can from those left on the roster worth something on the market.
With the trade deadline a day away, they acted.
Heading to Jacksonville will be 2022 first-round pick and defensive tackle Jordan Davis, a team captain who has struggled mightily this season in the wake of signing a $78 million contract extension over 3 years this past March -- $65M of which was guaranteed, according to reports at the time.
The Eagles will receive a first-round draft pick in 2027 and a second-round selection in 2029 from the Jags, who beat the Birds on a last-second field goal in London on Oct. 11.
According to Phanatic Mag's founder, John McMullen, the move is likely indicative of at least 2 things:
- This will likely be Vic Fangio's last season as defensive coordinator.
- The Eagles will likely be able to sign Moro Ojomo in the offseason, which was not likely with both Davis and Jalen Carter's recent contract extensions on the books.
Below is a statement issued through X by the team late this afternoon:
