Overview

• With Nolan Smith and Ogbo Okoronkwo on injured reserve and Za'Darius Smith newly retired, the Eagles are down to four healthy edge rushers and have only nine sacks.
• Recent reporting links Philadelphia to Dolphins veterans Bradley Chubb and Jaelan Phillips, whose familiarity with Vic Fangio fuels speculation they could fit quickly if made available.
• Chubb is under contract through 2027 with non-guaranteed years but cap charges that jump into the low $30 million range in 2026 and 2027, complicating trade math.
• Phillips brings prior sack production and has started every game this season after injury issues in 2024, carrying a roughly $13.26 million cap figure.
• Other names floated include Trey Hendrickson, Jermaine Johnson, Carl Granderson and Chase Young, while analysts note Howie Roseman’s mixed track record on in-season moves and mention internal shuffles such as shifting Jihaad Campbell to edge as alternatives.
