Eagles reportedly trade for Jets CB Michael Carter II in effort to bolster middling pass defense, send WR John Metchie to New York
Update: 2025-10-30
Description
The Philadelphia Eagles bolster their pass defense by trading wide receiver John Metchie and a 2027 sixth-round pick to the New York Jets for cornerback Michael Carter II and a 2027 seventh-round pick. The Eagles aim to improve a secondary that has seen a significant drop in performance this season, ranking 18th in pass defense after leading the league last year. Carter II, a slot corner, adds depth to the Eagles' secondary, which has struggled to find consistency beyond their top cornerbacks, Quinyon Mitchell and Cooper DeJean. The trade is considered low-risk for the Eagles, as they look to strengthen their pass coverage and maintain their championship window.
