Fletcher Cox Fantasy

Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle Fletcher Cox (ribs) should be fine moving forward, according to a league source. Cox underwent an MRI exam on Monday morning after he suffered a "friendly fire" shot to the ribs when he collided with teammate Zach Cunningham in the Week 1 win over the New England Patriots on Sunday. Cox's availability for Thursday's game against the Minnesota Vikings could depend on pain management. For what it's worth, Cox was estimated as a non-participant in practice on Monday. If the 32-year-old is held out as a precaution in Week 2, expect to see more of Jalen Carter and Milton Williams on the interior of the Eagles' defensive line.

Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle Fletcher Cox has decided to re-sign with the organization. The 32-year-old has agreed to a one-year, 10 million contract. He reportedly received better offers elsewhere, but decided to stay loyal and remain with the Eagles. The six-time Pro Bowl tackle is coming off a strong season with the Eagles in 2022. He totaled 43 tackles, seven tackles for loss, and seven sacks in 17 games this past season. The return of Cox is a welcoming sight for the Eagles who have already lost multiple defenders this offseason.

Defensive tackle Fletcher Cox officially reached an agreement to re-sign with the Philadelphia Eagles for one year, according to a source. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport is reporting that the deal is worth $14 million. The Eagles released the veteran pass-rusher on Thursday for salary cap purposes, but the two sides quickly came to a deal to reunite for the 2022 season. Cox was originally scheduled to make $18 million this year. The 31-year-old made six straight Pro Bowls from 2015-20, and although he fell off a bit last year, he can still be an effective pass-rusher for the Eagles. Cox has been in Philadelphia for 10 years and has racked up 58 sacks in 156 career games. He's not much of an option in IDP leagues after getting 3.5 sacks in two of the last three seasons.
