Sweat will return for the 2024 season. Where does that leave Haason Reddick?
Eagles defensive end Josh Sweat didn't record a sack over the team's final eight regular-season games. His restructured deal has a max value of $13 million with $10 million guaranteed.Josh Sweat agreed to a contract restructure Friday that will keep him with the Eagles through the 2024 season, according to a league source.
along with edge rusher Haason Reddick but reworked the final year of Sweat’s contract, which now has a max value of $13 million with $10 million guaranteed, according to the source. Sweat’s previous deal, an extension he signed in 2021, had no money guaranteed for next season and left his future in question with trade speculation. Sweat finished last year with 6½ sacks after a sharp regression in the latter half of the year. The 26-year-old didn’t record a sack in the Eagles’ final eight regular-season games. According to, he had three or fewer pressures in all but one game. Sweat had one sack in the wild-card round against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but managed just two pressures in the 32-9 loss. Reddick wasn’t much better. He had 3½ sacks in the team’s final eight games, although the switch from Sean Desai to Matt Patricia as de facto defensive coordinator led to Reddick dropping into coverage more than he had previously. After coming to an agreement with Sweat, who had 11 sacks in 2022, the focus now shifts toward Reddick as the potential odd-man out. The Eagles signed edge rusher Bryce Huff earlier this week on a three-year dealand now have a logjam at the top of their edge-rusher rotation with him, Sweat, and Reddick along with veteran defensive end Brandon Graham and 2022 first-round pick Nolan Smith as key reserves. The team also signed former New Orleans Saints outside linebacker Zack Baun earlier this week, adding another player who is best suited rushing the passer off the edge. The Eagles gave Reddick permission to seek a trade last month with the 29-year-old Camden native also entering the final year of his contract. Reddick has a case to make that he’s outperformed the $15 million average annual value of the deal he signed in 2022, considering his 27 sacks the last two seasons, leading the team in each of those campaigns. “Haason obviously is an unbelievable player for the Philadelphia Eagles,” Eagles general manager Howie Roseman said at the NFL scouting combine last month. “I think that anything you’re trying to do, you’re trying to blend, obviously, what you’re trying to do this year and how you’re going to look in the future. I think that’s the hardest job. Certainly, don’t want to get into any specifics with any conversations with players, but have tremendous respect for the player and the person.” In terms of possible compensation, it’s worth noting the Carolina Panthers’ trade package for Pro Bowl edge rusher Brian Burns earlier this week. In exchange for the 25-year-old, who was on the franchise tag, the Panthers got a second-round pick, a fifth-round pick swap, and a conditional fifth-rounder in 2025 from the New York Giants, who signed Burns to a five-year contract worth $150 million.
