Eagles' defensive pair not focused on contract extension talks originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Just ahead of the Philadelphia Eagles' training camp, the team announced it was signing defensive tackle Jordan Carter to a four-year contract extension worth $152 million. This extension will make him the highest-paid defensive tackle in the history of the NFL, surpassing the Tennessee ***** ans' Jeffery Simmons, who put pen to paper on a deal worth $105.8 million earlier in the offseason.
When discussing the extension at the training camp, Eagles' executive vice president, Howie Roseman, made a remark about the safety of fans' jerseys for certain players, without saying their names; it'd be presumed that he was talking about cornerbacks Quinyon Mitchell and Cooper DeJean.
Mitchell, who was just named within the NFL's top 100 players earlier in the week, isn't in a contract year, with next season being his last guaranteed season in the City of Brotherly Love, given that the 2028 season lies under a team option. A similar thing can be said for DeJean, who has another year left on his contract, meaning the team's front office doesn't exactly have to rush to get either of their players similar extensions.
Quinyon Mitchell and Cooper DeJean don’t sound like they’re letting the possibility of big paydays within the next year distract them from this season.#EaglesSportsRadioWIPKYWNewsradiopic.twitter.com/bK7CEexrW3
