The Philadelphia Eagles sneakily opened up a ton of cap space earlier this week by restructuring the contract of Fletcher Cox. Now we know why. The team announced on Saturday that DE Josh Sweat has signed a three-year contract extension.
The Deal is said to be worth $40M, with $26.9M guaranteed.
Sweat was in his contract year with the Eagles and it was a little surprising that a deal hadn’t been worked out earlier in the offseason.
