Eagles trade defensive tackle Jordan Davis to Jaguars

Summarised from 2 outlets · 6 reports · Updated 9 Nov, 23:31 · Archive

The Philadelphia Eagles have traded defensive tackle Jordan Davis to the Jacksonville Jaguars for a 2027 first-round pick and a 2029 second-round pick. The trade comes after the Eagles' seventh consecutive loss, a 19-11 defeat to the Giants on Sunday, leaving them at 2-7 in one of the worst seasons in franchise history.

Davis was drafted 13th overall by the Eagles out of Georgia and had largely underperformed for three seasons before finally showing improvement last year with 4.5 sacks and above-average run defence. The team had given him a three-year, $78 million extension in the offseason that made him one of the NFL's ten highest-paid defensive tackles.

PhillyVoice reports the trade will likely help the Eagles re-sign defensive tackle Moro Ojomo, who has performed better and is in the final year of his contract. The outlet also reports the Eagles are expected to make further trades before Tuesday's 4 p.m. ET deadline, with potential departures including tight end Dallas Goedert, cornerback Riq Woolen and wide receiver Marquise Brown.
