Overview

  • The Eagles will receive a mid-round draft pick for Huff in a deal that can be processed after June 1 under NFL salary-cap regulations.
  • Huff restructured his three-year, $51.1 million contract so Philadelphia carries $9.05 million and San Francisco covers $7.95 million of his 2025 salary.
  • His 2024 season featured 2.5 sacks in 12 games and limited practice participation, marking a downturn from the 10-sack campaign he posted under Robert Saleh in New York.
  • The move reunites Huff with Robert Saleh, his former head coach with the Jets who now serves as the 49ers’ defensive coordinator.
  • San Francisco bolsters its pass-rush rotation by pairing Huff with All-Pro Nick Bosa and first-round pick Mykel Williams.
