Eagles Acquire CB Jaire Alexander From Ravens in Late-Round Pick Swap

The veteran is expected to provide depth for an injury-thinned secondary ahead of Tuesday's deadline.

Overview

  • Philadelphia receives Jaire Alexander and a 2027 seventh-round pick, sending Baltimore a 2026 sixth-round pick, the teams announced.
  • The Eagles also placed safety Marcus Epps and outside linebacker Azeez Ojulari on injured reserve in corresponding moves.
  • Alexander played only two games for the Ravens this season, logging 61 defensive snaps with five tackles after knee issues and multiple healthy scratches.
  • The move follows Philadelphia's earlier addition of slot corner Michael Carter II as the team targets secondary reinforcements before the Nov. 4 deadline.
  • Baltimore moved a low-usage veteran off a crowded depth chart and gained reported modest salary-cap relief as Marlon Humphrey and Chidobe Awuzie returned to larger roles.
