Eagles' Avonte Maddox: Returns to Philly
Avonte Maddox and the Philadelphia 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.

Avonte Maddox: Cut by Philadelphia
The Eagles released Avonte Maddox on Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.Since inking a three-year, $22.5 million contract extension with the Eagles in November 2021, Maddox has struggled to stay on the field. Over the last two campaigns, he's appeared in only 13 regular-season contests, including just four in 2023 after he suffered a torn pectoral muscle Week 2. His release will save the Eagles approximately $9.6 million in salary-cap space, though Schefter notes that Philadelphia could look to re-sign the cornerback at a lower salary figure.
