Avonte Maddox Latest News
May move positions
Maddox has been getting reps at safety during practice this week, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports. Maddox is likely to lose his role as the team's slot corner to the Eagles' first-round selection in the 2024 Draft, Quinyon Mitchell. The rookie has been getting first-team reps at slot corner, leaving the veteran Maddox without a clear role in the secondary as things currently stand.
Returns to Philly
Maddox and the Eagles agreed to terms Thursday on a one-year contract, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Maddox has only suited up for 13 regular-season games over the past two years, including just four in 2023 due to a torn pectoral muscle. It makes sense for both sides to reunite on a more team friendly deal now, with Maddox getting a chance to return to form in a familiar system before testing free agency again next offseason. The 28-year-old is capable of contributing at a high level as a nickel corner when healthy.
Gets let go
Maddox was released by the Eagles on Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Maddox has missed much of the last two seasons, only playing 9 games in 2022, while playing just 4 regular season games in 2023 after suffering a torn pectoral muscle in Week 2. His release will save the Eagles $9.6 million in salary cap space, but Schefter notes that the two sides will keep talking and are open to a reunion.
Could be back this season
Maddox has been on injured reserve since tearing his pectoral in Week 2 against the Vikings. Sirianni didn't provide a timetable for the cornerback's return, but it's encouraging that Maddox still has a chance to play this season.
