Eagles create salary cap relief after restructuring Jordan Mailata’s contract

The Philadelphia Eagles created about $15 million in future salary cap space by restructuring the contract of left tackle Jordan Mailata

They’ll only see about $200K in 2023, but Philadelphia continues to make moves.

On Tuesday, the Eagles restructured Jordan Mailata’s contract in a move that will create $7.646 million in cap savings in 2024 and $7.779 million in cap savings in 2025 per Jeff Kerr of CBS Sports.

The move ensures that Mailata and Lane Johnson will be bookend tackles through at least the 2025 NFL season.

As has been the case for most of Howie Roseman’s deals, the Eagles use void years from 2026-29 to spread out those cap hits per NBC Sports Philadelphia.

The move creates $29.8 million in dead money in 2026 if Mailata plays out the entire contract.
