Jaguars Agree to Trade for Eagles DT Jordan Davis Before NFL Deadline
The Jacksonville Jaguars agreed to acquire Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle Jordan Davis in exchange for a 2027 first-round pick and a 2029 second-round pick, the teams announced Monday. Jacksonville said the move is pending a physical, and the agreement came less than a day before the NFL trade deadline.

What the Eagles receive
Philadelphia receives Jacksonville’s 2027 first-round selection and a 2029 second-rounder. The Eagles said Davis was a team captain and a first-round pick in 2022. Their announcement noted that the club now holds two first-round picks in the 2027 draft, along with additional high selections in later years.
The Jaguars’ announcement says the deal still depends on Davis passing a physical. Until that step is complete, the move remains an agreed trade rather than a fully finalized roster transaction.
Jacksonville adds three defenders before the deadline
Davis was Jacksonville’s third defensive addition Monday, according to the Associated Press. The Jaguars also agreed to acquire safety Jessie Bates III from Atlanta and defensive tackle Davon Godchaux from New Orleans. The series of moves adds help to both the secondary and defensive line ahead of Tuesday’s deadline.
Davis, 26, was selected 13th overall by Philadelphia in 2022 after playing at Georgia. Jacksonville’s announcement lists 193 tackles and 9.5 sacks over his five seasons with the Eagles. He was part of Philadelphia’s Super Bowl LIX championship team.
