NFL free agency will officially get underway on March 11, but the Eagles aren’t waiting around to make moves to start building their 2026 roster.
After a disappointing end to the 2025 season, the Eagles had 20 players set to be free agents. Howie Roseman has been known to do bring guys back before they hit the market, but he’ll have some tough decisions to make this season as the salary cap and the future cost of a young, dominant defense are front of mind.

The team did get some good news along the OL, with Lane Johnson confirming that he’ll return for his 14th season, and reports that Landon Dickerson is expected to come back, as well — this after both had reportedly considered retirement this offseason. As Roseman and Co. start filling positions of need, having Johnson and Dickerson back will give them a lesser need to stack experienced lineman and allow them to turn to the draft for players to develop under the All-Pro and Pro Bowlers up front.
There’s still plenty of work to be done to build Philadelphia’s roster. Among the 20 players hitting free agency, the Eagles could lose three of their four tight ends, their punter, and two starting safeties.
Here are some of the reports and rumors going around about Howie’s moves, and be sure to check back for updates:
