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.

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.
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.
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.
