The Philadelphia Eagles, a strong contender in the NFL, are exploring options to enhance their roster ahead of the upcoming season. One notable candidate is Alex Highsmith, an edge rusher from the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Eagles recently lost Jaelan Phillips to the Carolina Panthers, creating a gap in their defense. Highsmith, despite a troubling injury history, has demonstrated his capabilities by recording 9.5 sacks last season, which would have led the Eagles' defense. Over the last two years, he has achieved 15.5 sacks in just 24 games, making him an attractive option. The Eagles are in need of additional depth at the edge rusher position, especially considering the uncertainty around veteran Brandon Graham's return. The primary consideration now is what compensation the Steelers would require for Highsmith, as the Eagles aim to bolster their chances for a Super Bowl title.
