During\u00a0his end-of-season press conference,<\/a>\u00a0Philadelphia general manager Howie Roseman offered insight into the Eagles<\/a>‘ roster-building process, what goes into it, and how the pendulum has now swung toward the defense in 2026 and beyond. Dallas Goedert, Nakobe Dean, Reed Blankenship, Jaelan Phillips, Adoree’ Jackson, Marcus Epps, Fred Johnson, Brandon Graham, and Jahan Dotson are hours away from hitting the open market. Dean and Phillips are the only two with priority, and both could depart for lucrative offers, depending on market conditions.<\/p>\n

Still, Jalen Carter, Nolan Smith, Jordan Davis, Moro Ojomo, and others are just a few elite defenders GM Howie Roseman wants to keep around long term, and potential extensions could be handed out in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n

A current look via Over The Cap<\/a> shows the\u00a0Eagles have $10,475,126 available to roll over to 2026 and $44 million in dead cap space, while the Titans, Chargers, and Raiders all have over $80 million in total cap space for March.<\/p>\n

Decisions will be made in the next few hours. We’re taking a look at the 56 players currently under contract.<\/p>\n

QB: 2<\/p>\n

Jalen Hurts: $31,971,800<\/p>\n

Tanner McKee: $1,191,630<\/p>\n

At an average annual salary of $51 million a year, Hurts is the first NFL quarterback to make over $50 million in a season and win the Super Bowl. The previous record was held by Patrick Mahomes. The Eagles quarterback is entering the third year of the five-year, $255 million deal<\/a> he signed prior to the 2023 season, and his $51.5 million salary is guaranteed for 2026 as he’ll count $31,971,800 against the cap with a September 1 option bonus looming. This season will be the final year of guaranteed money, and his cap hit will rise to $42,132,800 in 2027 and $47,541,000 in 2028, according to Over The Cap. <\/a><\/p>\n
