The Eagles’ Bryce Huff signing was about the only blemish on a well-constructed Super Bowl team. Huff signed for just more than $17MM per year last March but was a healthy scratch for Philadelphia’s season-ender against Kansas City. The Super Bowl champions are now looking into parting ways with the former Jets pass rusher.
Huff is coming up in trade rumors; more interestingly, so is Dallas Goedert. Philly is open to trade talks involving Goedert and Huff, Fox Sports’ Jordan Schultz tweets. The Eagles had been eyeing a potential fourth-round pick for their long-serving tight end, The Exhibit’s Josina Anderson mentioned previously.
One of the league’s better all-around tight ends, Goedert is going into a contract year. He turned 30 earlier this offseason. Although Goedert has continually missed time due to injuries, he has consistently operated as Philly’s No. 3 target behind A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith on his current contract — a four-year, $57MM deal. Though, the former second-round pick has missed 15 games over the past three seasons.
Tied to just a $1.3MM 2025 base salary, Goedert also carries a $5.8MM option bonus for 2025. The Eagles have regularly used these to create cap space in recent years, while four void years are in place to reduce cap numbers as well. Goedert is only set to carry an $11.8MM cap number this year. It would cost the Eagles $21.4MM in dead money to move off Goedert. The Eagles also appear open to a trade here that involves a 2026 or 2027 mid-round pick, Anderson adds.
A separation is firmly in play for the Eagles and Goedert, per 94WIP.com’s Eliot Shorr-Parks, who adds a pay cut may be the only way Goedert comes back to Philadelphia. Although the tight end market has not moved substantially since Goedert agreed to his current deal — one finalized shortly after the Eagles traded Zach Ertz during the 2021 season — Goedert remains a quality blocker who has contributed plenty in the passing game in recent years. Boasting three 600-plus-yard seasons, Goedert finished with 42 catches for 496 yards and two touchdowns in 2024 while adding 17 grabs for 215 yards and another TD in the playoffs.
More to come.
