The Philadelphia Eagles have made a significant move ahead of the NFL trade deadline, acquiring defensive end Jaelan Phillips from the Miami Dolphins. This trade aims to boost their pass rush, a position that has struggled this season. Phillips, who has a history with Eagles defensive coordinator Vic Fangio, has shown potential to make an immediate impact. Despite past durability concerns, Phillips has demonstrated consistency this season, playing in all nine of the Dolphins games. He is expected to start on one of the defensive edges for the Eagles, potentially alongside Nolan Smith Junior or Jalyx Hunt. This acquisition strengthens the Eagles defensive line and sends a message to the league about their intentions.
