After locking up Jalen Carter and Jordan Davis, the Eagles’ long-term plans shift to a 2027 class (Quinyon Mitchell, Cooper DeJean, Jalyx Hunt); in the near term, Tyler Steen is the most plausible extension candidate, though the team may wait for a below-market deal, Nolan Smith isn’t urgent, Tanner McKee isn’t an extension candidate, and Moro Ojomo is likely to test free agency after next season due to cap constraints.
