Futures of A.J. Brown, Dallas Goedert With Eagles are "Interconnected"

The Philadelphia Eagles have had positive momentum a few times for a potential trade of wide receiver A.J. Brown in recent weeks and days, but nothing has come together. The NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reports that the situation with free-agent tight end Dallas Goedert is a big piece of why Brown has yet to be traded. Goedert has a void date in his contract, which, if triggered, would be a $20 million salary cap. It's why the Eagles have pushed back the void date twice on Goedert's contract to buy them more time in Brown trade talks. Garafolo adds that Goedert and Brown are "sort of interconnected." "They can't pay Goedert if they are keeping Brown, and they can't take both cap hits." There isn't any real momentum for a trade of Brown right now, and The Athletic's Dianna Russini reported earlier on Friday that Brown won't be traded at this time. Garafolo thinks general manager Howie Roseman will engage in more trade talks over the weekend. For fantasy purposes, Brown won't necessarily have more upside if the Eagles trade him, but Goedert's fantasy value would become much more stable if he stays and Brown goes.

Eagles, Dallas Goedert Push Back Void Date a Second Time to Monday

The Philadelphia Eagles and tight end Dallas Goedert have pushed the void date back on his contract a second time, this time to Monday, league sources told Zach Berman of The Athletic. The two sides had previously set a deadline for Friday afternoon. It most likely means that the two sides are interested in a reunion. There's a good chance the 31-year-old will agree to a new deal with Philly this weekend to return as the team's top pass-catching tight end. The former 49th overall pick in the second round of the 2018 draft out of South Dakota State, Goedert set career-highs in catches (60) and touchdowns (11) while going for 591 receiving yards in 15 regular-season starts. If Goedert does return, his role in the passing game could grow even further if the Eagles decide to trade disgruntled wideout A.J. Brown. As insurance, the Eagles added depth at tight end with Grant Calcaterra and Johnny Mundt in free agency earlier this week.

Eagles "Will Not Trade A.J. Brown at This Time"

After "serious conversations" with both the Los Angeles Rams and New England Patriots, the Philadelphia Eagles are not planning to trade star wide receiver A.J. Brown "at this time," per Dianna Russini of The Athletic. Russini reports that if a move does eventually happen, it will likely occur closer to June 1. Brown's name has frequently appeared in trade rumors after a tumultuous 2025 season that saw him make multiple public complaints about the Eagles' offense through the media. Even still, the 28-year-old recorded 78 receptions for 1,003 yards and seven touchdowns on 121 targets across 15 games played. Philadelphia's asking price on Brown is surely sky-high, as he's a three-time All-Pro who has a proven track record as one of the best wide receivers in football. Brown would profile as the clear WR1 in New England, but a trade to Los Angeles would be less than ideal for fantasy managers, given that the Rams already have a pair of star wideouts in Puka Nacua and Davante Adams.

Patriots, Rams Making "Strong Pushes" to Acquire A.J. Brown

The New England Patriots and Los Angeles Rams are "making strong pushes" to land Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown in a trade, according to Dianna Russini of The Athletic. No deals have been agreed to as negotiations continue, but both teams continue to "show heavy interest." The Pats continue to show interest in Brown despite signing Green Bay Packers wideout Romeo Doubs, while the Rams are still interested despite already sending a first-round pick and other draft capital to the Kansas City Chiefs last week for cornerback Trent McDuffie. The Eagles don't have a ton of incentive to trade Brown, who has four straight 1,000-yard seasons, and they've reportedly been asking for a first-round pick and then some. Eagles GM Howie Roseman "won't part with a great player for nothing." For fantasy purposes, managers with Brown in dynasty/keeper leagues surely hope he isn't dealt to the Rams, where he'd be competing for targets with Puka Nacua and Davante Adams.

Arnold Ebiketie Reaches One-Year Deal With Eagles

Free-agent linebacker Arnold Ebiketie signed a one-year deal worth a maximum of $7.3 million with the Philadelphia Eagles on Thursday, his agent told Adam Schefter of ESPN. The deal includes $4.3 million in guarantees. Ebiketie will help the Eagles' pass rush after they lost edge rusher Jaelan Phillips to the Carolina Panthers in free agency this week. The 27-year-old had a career-worst two sacks last year with the Atlanta Falcons as he became a rotational pass-rusher. Despite his low sack total, he was 10th in the NFL in quarterback pressure rate (16.4%) among players with at least 150 pass-rush snaps, according to Next Gen Stats. Ebiketie led Atlanta with six sacks in 2024 and also had six sacks in 2023. He was selected in the second round by the Falcons in 2022 out of Penn State. Ebiketie will certainly give Philly more pass-rush help, and he could be used more often than he was by the Falcons last year.

Rams Discussing Trade for A.J. Brown?

The Los Angeles Rams discussed trading for Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown last week before dealing for cornerback Trent McDuffie, sources told Dianna Russini of The Athletic. The talks slowed, but the Rams "continue to monitor the status" of the three-time Pro Bowler "with interest." The New England Patriots have been the team most linked to a potential Brown trade, but they put their talks with Philly on the back burner after they signed former Green Bay Packers receiver Romeo Doubs this week. The Rams sent a first-round pick to the Kansas City Chiefs for McDuffie, and the Eagles are looking for a first-rounder and more for Brown, so it's probably unlikely the Rams would fork over even more valuable draft capital when they already have stars Puka Nacua and Davante Adams at wideout. The Eagles don't have any incentive to lower their asking price on Brown, who is still on the right side of 30 and has four straight 1,000-yard receiving seasons.

Eagles, Landon Dickerson Agree to Revised Two-Year Contract

The Philadelphia Eagles and three-time Pro Bowl offensive guard Landon Dickerson agreed to a revised two-year contract on Thursday at around $36 million, sources told Jeremy Fowler of ESPN. Dickerson was previously due to make $39 million in 2026 and 2027, but he can now hit that mark with 2027 incentives. He will be due $15.7 million this year and is no longer under contract for 2028. The 27-year-old former second-round pick (37th overall) in 2021 out of Alabama was a Pro Bowler from 2022 to 2024 for the Eagles. He started 15 regular-season contests a year ago and has started 77 of the 78 games that he's appeared in for the Eagles over his five seasons in the NFL. Going into his sixth year in the league, Dickerson will be slated to start at left guard this year in a revamped offense.

Eagles Buy Some Extra Time to Negotiate With Dallas Goedert

Philadelphia Eagles impending free-agent tight end Dallas Goedert's void date has been pushed back to Friday, a league source told Zach Berman of The Athletic. It's a procedural move that will give both sides a chance to work out a contract extension before he officially hits the open market. The 31-year-old and the Eagles could be close to getting something done to keep him around. The veteran tight end was originally drafted by the Eagles in the second round in 2018 out of South Dakota State, and he's been with the team for all eight years of his career. Goedert suited up for 15 regular-season games in 2025 and caught a career-high 60 passes on 82 targets for 591 yards and a career-best 11 touchdowns to finish as the TE3 in half-PPR scoring. If he returns to Philly, he'll be a big part of the Eagles' new-look offense again, but fantasy managers certainly won't be able to count on a repeat of double-digit touchdowns.

A.J. Brown Trade Now on the "Back Burner" for Patriots

The New England Patriots have put a potential trade for Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown on the "back burner," according to The Athletic's Chad Graff. The Patriots tried to pull off a blockbuster trade for Brown before the legal tampering period opened on Monday, but nothing worked out since the Eagles have "little financial incentive" to deal Brown before June 1 and are "demanding a considerable return because of it," asking for more than just a first-round draft pick. If the Eagles move Brown before June 1, they'd be stuck with more than $43 million in dead salary cap while losing more than $20 million in camp space for 2026. They'd have a $16 million dead-cap charge while gaining $7 million in cap space if Brown is traded after June 1. The urgency for a receiver was also lessened when they agreed to sign Romeo Doubs to a deal on Tuesday. If New England grabs a wideout in April's draft, they could move on from Brown altogether.

Eagles to Bring Back Grant Calcaterra

The Philadelphia Eagles are re-signing tight end Grant Calcaterra to a one-year deal, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.com. Philadelphia entered this offseason with its top three tight ends all slated to hit unrestricted free agency. While Dallas Goedert and Kylen Granson remain unsigned, Philadelphia at least brought back one key player at the position in Calcaterra. They also made an external move, signing ex-Jaguars blocking tight end Johnny Mundt. There's still plenty of offseason remaining for Philadelphia to strengthen the position group, and we can't rule out a Goedert return. As it stands at this very second, though, Calcaterra projects as the Eagles' No. 1 tight end. The 27-year-old might not be ready to make that jump after he caught just nine passes for 76 yards and a touchdown in 2025. On a more positive note, he did have 24 catches, 298 yards, and one touchdown back in 2024. He fits best as a backup tight end who can make an occasional spot start here or there, so we wouldn't be surprised to see the Eagles bring back Goedert or pursue a different No. 1 tight end via free agency, trade, or the NFL Draft.

Riq Woolen Signs With the Eagles

The Philadelphia Eagles are signing free-agent cornerback Riq Woolen to a one-year deal worth up to $15 million, according to Adam Schefter and Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com. Woolen spent his first four NFL seasons with the Seattle Seahawks, earning Pro Bowl honors as a rookie in 2022 and winning a Super Bowl during a contract year in 2025. Across 16 games (seven starts) this past season, he registered 41 tackles, 12 passes defended, and one interception. He has certainly taken a step back since his six-interception campaign in 2022, but the Eagles are hopeful that he can return to his early-career form and make a big impact in their secondary. He should fill a prominent role within a cornerback rotation that also features Quinyon Mitchell and Cooper DeJean.

Johnny Mundt • TE • Eagles

Eagles Agree to a One-Year Deal With Johnny Mundt

The Philadelphia Eagles have signed tight end Johnny Mundt to a one-year deal, according to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network. Mundt is primarily known for his blocking, as he caught just nine passes and scored zero touchdowns across 16 games with the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2025. Released by the Jaguars last week, Mundt possesses nine years of NFL experience with stops in Los Angeles (Rams), Minnesota, and Jacksonville. He'll offer much-needed depth for the Eagles, who entered this offseason with their top three tight ends slated for free agency. Philadelphia already re-signed Grant Calcaterra, but Dallas Goedert and Kylen Granson are still unrestricted free agents. If neither Goedert nor Granson returns, Mundt would slot in as the team's No. 2 tight end, at least for the time being. Even so, his proficiency as a blocker limits his receiving upside and keeps him off the fantasy radar in most leagues.

New Receiver Addition Doesn't End Patriots Interest in A.J. Brown

Updating a previous report, the New England Patriots' free-agent signing of wide receiver Romeo Doubs on Tuesday "does not end their interest in trading" for Philadelphia Eagles receiver A.J. Brown, according to the NFL Network's Cameron Wolfe. The Patriots aren't in as much of a rush now for a pass-catcher, and it might mean they don't end up acquiring him because of the Eagles' high asking price, but Wolfe says that they "still love" Brown. The Patriots signed Doubs to a four-year, $80 million contract, but they might not be fully sold on his ability to replace veteran Stefon Diggs as the WR1 for quarterback Drake Maye in 2026. The problem is that Philly doesn't have to trade Brown, and they certainly aren't going to give out a discount for a 28-year-old who has six 1,000-yard seasons in his seven years in the league. The three-time Pro Bowler would certainly have a more optimistic fantasy outlook if he were to join New England after he had a career-low 12.9 yards per catch in 2025.

Patriots Conversations on A.J. Brown "Aren't Dead Yet"

NFL Network's Cameron Wolfe says that he was told that the New England Patriots' talks regarding Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown "aren't dead yet." The Eagles' asking price for Brown is "still very high," and it's unclear if anything changes on that front after New England signed former Green Bay Packers wideout Romeo Doubs to a four-year deal on Tuesday. Right now, there isn't much common ground between the Patriots and Eagles on any potential deal for the 28-year-old Brown. Doubs goes a long way to help replace veteran Stefon Diggs, who was released recently, but it wouldn't be a surprise if the Patriots still want an alpha No. 1 receiver like Brown. The three-time Pro Bowler had his fourth straight 1,000-yard season with the Eagles in 2025, although he wasn't happy with his role in the offense, and he had a career-low 12.9 yards per catch in his seventh year in the league.

Jaelan Phillips • LB • Eagles

Jaelan Phillips Heads to Panthers on a Four-Year Deal

The Carolina Panthers have signed edge rusher Jaelan Phillips to a four-year, $120 million contract, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com. Phillips is a former first-round pick who spent 4.5 years in Miami before being dealt to the Philadelphia Eagles at the 2025 trade deadline. He was healthy for all 17 games last season and made a career-high 17 starts while amassing five sacks, 14 quarterback hits, 53 tackles, and two fumble recoveries. Giving Phillips such a lucrative contract reaffirms Carolina's desire to invest in its defense, just a few months after winning the NFC South and being eliminated in the first round of the NFL playoffs. Phillips will immediately fill an impact role on defense as the Panthers look to slow down the likes of Michael Penix Jr., Tyler Shough, and Baker Mayfield within their own division.

Jahan Dotson Reaches Agreement With Falcons on Two-Year Contract

Former Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Jahan Dotson reached an agreement on Monday with the Atlanta Falcons on a two-year, $15 million deal worth up to $17 million, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter. The deal also includes $10 million fully guaranteed for Dotson. The 25-year-old was joined by Olamide Zaccheaus as free-agent additions on Monday at the receiver position for Atlanta. Both Dotson and Zaccheaus will be clearly behind Drake London in the pecking order for WR1 duties. In fact, Dotson and Zaccheaus could be competing for the No. 2/3 role going into the 2026 regular season. However, he should have a better chance to secure more targets after catching just 37 passes in 34 regular-season games the last two seasons behind A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith in Philadelphia. Dotson's best season was his rookie year in 2022 with the Commanders, when he caught 35 passes for 523 yards and seven touchdowns. The former first-rounder will probably go undrafted in 12-team leagues.

Eagles Have Received Trade Calls on Jalen Carter

The Philadelphia Eagles have received trade calls on defensive tackle Jalen Carter, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN. The Eagles must decide if they want to give Carter a contract extension after already locking down defensive tackle Jordan Davis to an extension on Saturday. Carter, the former ninth overall pick in 2023 out of Georgia, has been a Pro Bowler in each of the last two seasons, so it's probably unlikely that the Eagles will be looking to trade him. The 24-year-old has 13.5 sacks in 43 games (27 starts) in his first three NFL seasons, although he did play in a career-low 11 regular-season games in 2025, finishing with a career-low three sacks. Carter has been an effective hog molly on the interior of Philly's defensive line, but he'll be expected to take another step forward in Year 4 if he's given a long-term contract extension.

Eagles Interested in Re-Signing Jaelan Phillips

The Philadelphia Eagles remain interested in re-signing outside linebacker Jaelan Phillips, and talks are expected to continue to intensify, sources told FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz. If Phillips reaches free agency, Schultz thinks he's "poised to cash in big" due to his strong market. The Eagles acquired the 26-year-old from the Miami Dolphins at last year's trade deadline. The former first-rounder in 2021 (18th overall) out of the University of Miami finished 2025 with a combined 53 tackles (29 solo), five sacks, seven tackles for loss, 14 QB hits, four pass breakups, one forced fumble, and two fumble recoveries in 17 regular-season games. Phillips hasn't exactly been a must-roster player in IDP fantasy formats, but he has the potential to be a key linebacker for the Eagles if he's brought back. It was good to see him play a full 17 games last year after battling injuries the previous two seasons.

Trade Talks Involving A.J. Brown Have Stalled

The NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reports that right now, the momentum "seems to have stalled" in trade discussions surrounding Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown. However, it's not for lack of creativity on general manager Howie Roseman's part, as Garafolo explains that Roseman has floated the idea of doing half of a deal now and the other half after June 1, which would help Philly's salary cap picture for the 2026 season. Meanwhile, Josina Anderson has reported that the New England Patriots are currently telling the Eagles that they are not giving up a first-round pick for Brown, per a league source. The Eagles have "floated" a first-rounder, a second-rounder, and a player asking price to the Pats in exchange for Brown. The 28-year-old wideout, who had a fourth straight 1,000-yard season in 2025, is under contract through 2029 and carries a salary cap hit of just under $24 million for 2026.

Jordan Davis Signs Three-Year Extension with Eagles

Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle Jordan Davis signed a three-year extension with the organization on Saturday. The Eagles have decided to lock up their star defensive tackle after a breakout campaign in 2025. Davis recorded career highs in tackles (72), sacks (4.5), and tackles for loss (nine) in 17 games with the Eagles last season. The 26-year-old has finally become a top-tier player after being drafted in the first round by the Eagles in 2022. They've decided to lock up Davis to a long-term deal before he possibly becomes too expensive next offseason. There is no word on the salary numbers at the moment, but this appears to be a solid move by Philly.
