The Eagles announced on Monday afternoon that they have traded linebacker Haason Reddick to the New York Jets in exchange for a 2026 third-round pick that can become a second-round pick if specific terms are met.

Reddick was the Eagles’ premier free agent signing in 2022 after four years with the Arizona Cardinals and another in Carolina. The Camden, New Jersey native and former Temple star earned back-to-back Pro Bowl selections while leading the team with 27 sacks over the past two years, helping his hometown team win the NFC Championship in his first season as an Eagle. The 29-year-old Reddick was set to enter the final year of his contract.

Executive Vice President/General Manager Howie Roseman discussed Reddick’s status at the NFL Scouting Combine in February.

“I think that anything you’re trying to do, you’re trying to blend what you’re trying to do this year and what you’re trying to do in the future,” Roseman said. “I think that’s the hardest job. Don’t want to get into any specifics with any conversations with players but have tremendous respect for the player and person.”

The Eagles make the deal with the Jets – and Roseman’s top lieutenant Joe Douglas, who is now the architect of New York’s team – after signing the Jets’ top pass rusher Bryce Huff, an on-the-rise 25-year-old who posted a career-high and team-best 10 sacks, 21 QB hits, and 67 QB pressures in 2023, at the onset of free agency.
