Good news! The Philadelphia Eagles have just improved their roster with another essential player.
After Philadelphia’s historic collapse, which saw the team finish the season 1-6 after a 10-1 start, owner Jeffrey Lurie and general manager Howie Roseman are expected to make significant changes to the Eagles. Nick Sirianni’s future will be assessed.
All-Pro center Jason Kelce, 36, is the first domino to fall. After 13 seasons with the Eagles, he reportedly told his teammates he was retiring.
April will mark Brandon Graham’s 36th birthday. He says he wants to play one more season with the Eagles, his 15th overall, and believes he is one of the few players on the team who deserves to write his last script.
As the public and media await Roseman’s year-end press conference, Over The Cap is providing an early look at the 18 Eagles who will be unrestricted free agents come March, when the new league year gets underway.
1 RB D’Andre Swift

In his first season with the Eagles, Swift was a Pro Bowl selection and a free agent who ran for a career-high 1,049 yards and five touchdowns.
39 receptions for 214 yards and a touchdown were also recorded by him.
As of right now, Philadelphia only has Kenneth Gainwell signed through 2024; Spotrac estimates Swift’s market value to be $22 million for four years.
2 RB Rashaad Penny

After D’Andre Swift was acquired via trade, Penny signed a one-year contract with the Eagles in the offseason but was mostly inactive.
