Eagles extend Jalen Carter, impacting Moro Ojomo's future with team
Summary

The Philadelphia Eagles have signed defensive tackle Jalen Carter to a four-year, $152 million extension, making him the highest-paid player at his position in NFL history. This deal, which keeps Carter in Philadelphia for another six years, comes on the heels of Jordan Davis's three-year, $78 million extension. With the significant financial commitment to Carter and Davis, the Eagles are likely to part ways with fellow defensive tackle Moro Ojomo after the season. Ojomo, a free agent next offseason, could still secure a lucrative contract elsewhere, given his strong performance in 2025, where he recorded six sacks and 21 tackles. The situation creates challenges for the team as they balance cap space with other young defensive players needing contracts.
