The Eagles keep making deals. The latest brings back a player who had spent the last three seasons in Philly.
Via multiple reports, the Jaguars have traded tackle Fred Johnson to the Eagles. Johnson signed a one-year, $1.137 million deal as a free agent in March.
Undrafted out of Florida in 2019, Johnson has played for the Steelers, Bengals, Buccaneers, and Eagles. He has appeared in 62 regular-season games, with 14 starts.
The compensation — a seventh-round pick in 2026 — suggests that, but for the trade, Johnson would have been cut. Johnson had been listed as the second-team left tackle with the Jaguars, behind Walker Little and in front of Javon Foster.
