Eagles rework Jake Elliott's deal, lower 2026 cap hit slightly
· Yahoo Sports
The Eagles reworked Jake Elliott's contract, reducing his base salary to $5 million while guaranteeing the full amount and lowering his 2026 cap hit by $240K. Elliott was voted second-team All-Pro by the Associated Press in 2023, when he established a single-season franchise record in FG percentage (93.8%). He also set a career high with 135 kicking points (5th in team history).

Elliott successfully made field goals from 41 and 33 yards during Philadelphia's 23-19 wild-card loss to the 49ers, but he missed one of his two extra-point attempts. This missed extra point proved to be crucial, as the Eagles reached the San Francisco 21-yard line on their final possession and would have been in position for a game-tying field goal if Elliott had successfully converted all of his earlier kicks.
