The Philadelphia Eagles have signed former Buffalo Bills defensive end A.J. Epenesa on June 10, 2026, enhancing their pass-rush unit. Epenesa, who initially agreed to a one-year deal with the Cleveland Browns in March, failed his physical, prompting the Eagles to add him after losing Jaelan Phillips to free agency. In his six seasons with the Bills, he recorded 24 sacks and 158 pressures. This move follows the Eagles' prior additions of Jonathan Greenard and Arnold Ebiketie to address a significant reduction in pass-rush production after the departure of key players.
