Bryce Huff Says He Knew in Camp That Eagles Weren't a Fit

His comments spotlight a season that yielded just 2.5 sacks, leading to his one-year contract in San Francisco.

Overview

  • He revealed he wanted a trade early in the 2024 season after feeling misaligned with Vic Fangio’s defensive scheme.
  • He cited scheme friction for limiting him to 2.5 sacks and a forced fumble across 12 games with Philadelphia.
  • Huff has reunited with former Jets coach Robert Saleh in San Francisco to chase the 10-sack form he reached in 2023.
  • Upon arriving in San Francisco, he restructured his three-year, $51.1 million Eagles contract into a one-year deal to give the 49ers roster flexibility.
  • The Eagles received a conditional 2026 fifth-round pick in the trade, positioning Huff to complement star pass rusher Nick Bosa on the 49ers’ defensive front.
