- AJ Dillon, a former second-round pick for the Green Bay Packers, has signed a one-year contract with the Philadelphia Eagles.
- Dillon missed the entire 2024 season due to a neck injury but has been medically cleared to return for the 2025 season.
- The Eagles aim to bolster their rushing depth, with Dillon expected to back up Saquon Barkley following Kenneth Gainwell's departure to the Pittsburgh Steelers.
