The NFL trade deadline arrives Nov. 10 at 4 p.m. ET with Philadelphia among the most scrutinized teams in the league.
Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts is expected to miss the remainder of the season due to deep vein thrombosis, adding to a crisis that saw Philadelphia miss as many as nine potential starters during Sunday's loss to the Panthers. The offensive line core has disintegrated, with Lane Johnson retired, Cam Jurgens traded to Baltimore, and the futures of Landon Dickerson and Tyler Steen uncertain. The franchise could carry $80 million in dead money on its 2027 salary cap.
Running back Saquon Barkley has emerged as a potential trade candidate. The 2024 Offensive Player of the Year candidate has averaged 4.1 yards per carry in 2025, down from 5.8, and has been in and out of the lineup with injuries in 2026. Barkley, who turns 30 in February, is owed $16 million in 2027 with $2.5 million fully guaranteed. A proposed deal would send him to the Vikings, though the return package remains incomplete.
Philadelphia is unlikely to move cornerstone players including Quinyon Mitchell, DeVonta Smith, Jordan Mailata, and Jalen Carter. Several high-profile trades have already occurred, with Marvin Harrison Jr. going to the Texans, J.J. McCarthy to the Giants, and Joey Porter Jr. to the Cowboys.
