Eagles, Jordan Davis Agree to 3-Year, $78 Million Deal, AP Source Says

Jordan Davis becomes the NFL's highest-paid nose tackle with a $78 million, three-year extension including $65 million guaranteed, securing his role through 2029.

  • On March 7, 2026, the Philadelphia Eagles agreed to a three-year, $78 million extension with defensive tackle Jordan Davis, including $65 million guaranteed that makes him the highest-paid nose tackle in NFL history.
  • Faced with roster timing, Philadelphia opted to extend Davis after having the fifth-year option worth about $26 million for 2026, before free agency Monday.
  • Davis' 2025 season produced career highs with 4.5 sacks and 72 tackles across 17 games, and he has appeared in 64 regular-season games with 56 starts and nine playoff contests.
  • The move secures a core defensive piece and influences negotiations for Jalen Carter and Moro Ojomo, shaping the Eagles' cap planning and roster strategy under GM Howie Roseman.
  • Spotrac's projection showed a 4-year, $81.8 million contract, but the WIN Sports Group deal sets a benchmark before March 11, 2026, and April 23, 2026.
