Overview

• Philadelphia acquired Fred Johnson from the Jaguars for a 2026 seventh-round pick, according to widespread reports confirmed by local outlets.
• The Eagles sent offensive lineman Darian Kinnard to the Packers for a 2027 sixth-round selection in their third trade of the day.
• Johnson, 28, returns to the swing-tackle role he filled in 2024, when he appeared in 17 games with six starts for the eventual Super Bowl winners.
• He had signed a one-year deal with Jacksonville in March and became expendable after camp competition at tackle that included Wyatt Milum and Patrick Mekari.
• The transactions follow earlier moves for quarterback Sam Howell and reflect Philadelphia’s push for immediate depth given its low waiver position and injuries to Jordan Mailata (concussion) and Landon Dickerson (knee).
