Three free agents who make sense for the Eagles, version 3.0 - PhillyVoice
In the Eagles’ scheme, Reddick would be an interesting fit in their SAM linebacker role, which was occupied by Genard Avery in 2021. However, it would only make sense for the Eagles to shell out good money for a player like Reddick if they intended to increase the presence of that role in their defense. It was certainly understandable for Jonathan Gannon not to use the SAM backer often, when the best option at his disposal was Avery, who really wasn’t good at any of the three main job requirements (rushing the passer, playing the run, and dropping into coverage).
