Overview
- On June 2, the Eagles traded Huff to San Francisco for a conditional 2026 fifth-round pick that can become a fourth-round selection if he meets performance benchmarks.
- Philadelphia will pay $9.05 million of Huff’s $17 million 2025 salary and clear roughly $15 million in cap space this year by restructuring his contract.
- Huff struggled last season with just 2.5 sacks, a midseason wrist injury that forced him to miss five games and a healthy scratch status for Super Bowl LIX.
- San Francisco views Huff as a complementary pass rusher alongside Nick Bosa and reunites him with defensive coordinator Robert Saleh, his coach during a 10-sack season in New York.
- The Eagles plan to lean on younger edge rushers Nolan Smith and Jalyx Hunt while supplementing the rotation with free-agent additions Azeez Ojulari and Joshua Uche.
