That’s a $10 million increase over 2019 and will help the Eagles as they embark on trying to land Sidney Jones in a matter of hours.
The Eagles will have decisions to make on Alshon Jeffery, Jason Peters, Rodney McLeod, Nate Sudfeld, Jordan Howard, Jalen Mills, Ronald Darby, Nigel Bradham, and others.
Zach Ertz and Malcolm Jenkins are looking for contract extensions, and the latter could be a salary-cap casualty in the coming days.
Keeping Carson Wentz healthy, while stock-piling fast, athletic weapons will be the Eagles’ main goal this offseason.
