Jaguars reportedly land DT Jordan Davis in blockbuster deal with Eagles

The Jaguars struck a deal to land Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle Jordan Davis on Monday afternoon, just a day ahead of the NFL trade deadline, according to multiple reports. In return, the Eagles are getting multiple draft picks, including a first-round pick for next April.

The deal is the third that the Jaguars have made to add a player on the defensive side of the ball on Monday. They acquired safety Jessie Bates in a trade with the Atlanta Falcons, and also picked up defensive tackle Davon Godchaux in a trade with the New Orleans Saints. 

Davis is in his fifth season in the league this fall. He racked up a career-high 72 total tackles and 4.5 sacks during the 2025 campaign, and he has 31 total tackles and 1.5 sacks through nine games this season. The 26-year-old, who the Eagles selected with the No. 13 overall pick in 2022 out of Georgia, signed a three-year, $78 million extension with the Eagles back in March.

Philadelphia, meanwhile, is on a seven-game skid after Sunday’s 19-11 loss to the New York Giants. They are in last in the NFC East with just a 2-7 record, and are all but out of the playoff race this season — especially with quarterback Jalen Hurts sidelined due to blood clots. The move on Monday now gives the Eagles an additional first-round pick in next year’s draft and a second-round pick in 2029, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. They now have a combined 10 picks in the first two rounds of the next three drafts, and have plenty of room to regroup after this season ends.

The Jaguars currently sit at 6-2 on the season.
