Eagles gave Reddick permission to seek a trade ahead of free agency, while the team’s other decisions at edge rusher may have made that…

The Eagles and Josh Sweat came to a revised deal and signed Bryce Huff. Nolan Smith is entering his second season with the team, and Brandon Graham is returning for what would be a record fifteenth season. Haason Reddick would appear to be out of town with this situation, and the Eagles recently made a contract modification that would make a trade easier. Reddick’s $1 million incentive was shifted by the organization from March 15 to April 1, per Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com.

The $14.25 million base salary that Reddick, 29, is entitled to in 2024 is essentially non-guaranteed. Reddick, a native of Philadelphia, claimed he did not ask to be transferred, but the Eagles allowed him to pursue a trade ahead of free agency. However, the team’s other choices about edge rushers may have already determined that. There have been calls; it will be fascinating to watch what proposals surface. The likelihood that a team acquiring Reddick would do so with the intention of extending him will affect his value. Reddick, who has two consecutive seasons with ten or more sacks, is responsible for Philly almost surpassing the record for the most sacks in a single season held by the 1984 Bears in 2022. His $15MM AAV is the 19th most among edge defenders.
