Eagles Balk on Carter Trade Amid Contract Talks
3 Jun
Summary
- Eagles reportedly sought Myles Garrett but were denied.
- Philadelphia offered Nolan Smith or Jalyx Hunt instead.
- Carter's $27.1 million fifth-year option poses a contract challenge.
Reports indicate the Eagles were interested in acquiring defensive end Myles Garrett. However, the Browns' trade for Garrett did not involve Jalen Carter, despite speculation that Philadelphia had offered him.
The Eagles reportedly proposed Nolan Smith or Jalyx Hunt as trade pieces instead of Carter. This insistence on retaining Carter, who has not yet been signed to a second contract, is somewhat perplexing.
Carter is due a $27.1 million fifth-year option salary in 2027, suggesting his future contract could average over $30 million. Given this upcoming financial commitment, his stance on a new deal may be strengthened.
