Summarised from 4 outlets · Updated 9 Nov, 23:27 · Archive
Jacksonville has acquired defensive tackle Jordan Davis from Philadelphia for draft picks in one of three defensive trades on Monday.
The Jacksonville Jaguars have acquired Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle Jordan Davis for a 2027 first-round pick and a 2029 second-round pick. The trade was reported by ESPN on Monday, ahead of Tuesday's 4 p.m. NFL trade deadline.
Davis, 26, was a first-round pick by the Eagles in 2022 and signed a three-year, $78 million contract extension in March this year. In nine games this season, he has recorded 31 tackles and 1.5 sacks. The acquisition marks Jacksonville's third defensive trade on Monday, following deals for safety Jessie Bates from the Falcons and defensive tackle Davon Godchaux from the Saints.
The Eagles, now 2-7 after seven consecutive losses, released a statement thanking Davis for his contributions to the team's 2024 championship and two Super Bowl appearances since his draft in 2022. Quarterback Jalen Hurts has been sidelined due to blood clots, contributing to Philadelphia's difficult season. The trade signals a rebuilding phase for the Eagles as they stockpile future draft assets.
