Following Titans’ DT Jeffery Simmons signing a monster contract<\/a> resetting the market, it triggers the latest Philadelphia Eagles trade rumors, which could impact the future of Jalen Carter. The Eagles’ DT and his agent are probably thrilled after learning that Simmons received. He isn’t holding out for a deal or forcing anyone’s hand, similar to Tampa Bay Buccaneers Vita Vea<\/a>, but this raises the stakes for Philadelphia, and it could very well cause panic. Reportedly, in an earlier article<\/a>, Philadelphia was hesitant to give Carter a new deal, and now it looks like they might have no other choice but to pay up or trade him.<\/p>\n

Between fellow DT Moro Ojomo<\/a> and the former first-rounder? The Eagles may, unfortunately, prioritize extending Ojomo instead, as he’s probably less pricey. Still, as of this posting, there is no indication that Philadelphia and its star DT are close on a new deal. It doesn’t mean it won’t get done, but the team should be worried now, as they could be hitting a wall. It would’ve been easier if the Titans’ extension hadn’t happened, but it’s something to monitor over the next few months.<\/p>\n

Eagles Trade Rumors: Massive $105M Deal May Ignite Talks<\/h2>\n

Trade Request Impending?<\/h3>\n

It’s a possibility if the Eagles aren’t moving quickly on a new deal. The good news is that training camp isn’t until next month, so this means there’s still time to start contract talks. If they want to do it, it should probably happen before the 2026 season. Philadelphia can’t afford to walk into the season without paying one of their mega stars, especially with him having the leverage. However, are they holding him to trade for the Las Vegas Raiders’ Maxx Crosby<\/a> during the season?<\/p>\n

It’s a huge chance they are, but they stopped negotiating with the Cleveland Browns once they demanded Carter if they wanted Myles Garrett. It stopped Philadelphia, but if the team finds itself in a losing situation at 3-6, they could ignite talks with the Raiders. With the team already extending DT Jordan Davis<\/a> this offseason, the former first-round pick is floating in the same boat as he was last season, where Philadelphia wanted to see more from him.<\/p>\n

This could all be a waiting game, too, for the Eagles. However, nobody should be shocked if Carter receives trade interest, as the team was reportedly fielding talks, but it didn’t go anywhere. While many could argue that the Simmons deal helps Philadelphia figure out a number, they could also be wary of that, too. If the team extends Carter, it means Ojomo is likely gone, but for the sake of this article, let’s explore two teams willing to go all out to get the former first-round pick, now.<\/p>\n

Potential Next Teams<\/h3>\n

Carolina Panthers<\/h4>\n

Despite Tershawn Wharton returning from a concerning injury, there’s a strong need at the defensive tackle position for the Carolina Panthers. This team has never been afraid of making defensive line additions, and after signing edge rushers Jaelan Phillips and Devin Lloyd<\/a>, the Panthers should be in the market for one more premium addition.<\/p>\n

Bobby Brown is solid, but if they can get Carter to be in a full-time role, it could allow Brown to be in a situational environment. This will probably officially put the Panthers in the best spot for an NFC Championship Game, especially helping the chances of QB Bryce Young<\/a> earning a new contract.<\/p>\n

Los Angeles Chargers<\/h4>\n

The Los Angeles Chargers haven’t added a true premium defensive addition in a while, but it’s time for them to put the money where their mouth is. They have enough salary cap space to trade for Carter, so why not? Khalil Mack is back, but he’s getting older, and Dalvin Tomlinson joining on a one-year deal<\/a> doesn’t really mean he’ll have a long-term impact.<\/p>\n

After losing defensive coordinator Jesse Minter, the Chargers have to wake this unit up and finally embrace a true “winning football games in the trenches.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
