Eagles trading DT Jordan Davis in exchange for draft picks: ESPN

PHILADELPHIA -- The Jacksonville Jaguars are trading a 2027 first-round pick and a 2029 second-round pick to the Philadelphia Eagles for defensive tackle Jordan Davis, sources first told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

The Eagles confirmed news of the trade Monday, calling his growth and development a testament to his hard work and character.

"We are extremely grateful to Jordan for his contributions to our team on the field and in the Philadelphia community since we drafted him five years ago. He has been a key contributor to our team culture and on-field success, which included two Super Bowl appearances and a world championship in 2024," a statement said. "His growth and development as both a player and a leader are a testament to his hard work and character. We wish Jordan nothing but continued success."

This is the Jaguars' third trade for a defensive player on Monday, following the acquisitions of safety Jessie Bates III and defensive tackle Davon Godchaux in trades with the Atlanta Falcons and New Orleans Saints, respectively.

The Jaguars (6-2) have a three-game lead in the AFC South and play at the Tennessee Titans (1-7) on Sunday.

The Eagles (2-7), who have lost seven straight games, are now poised to have 10 picks in the first two rounds of the next three drafts.

Davis, 26, is under contract through the 2029 season after signing a three-year, $78 million extension, that included $64.4 million guaranteed, with the Eagles earlier this year.
