The Philadelphia Eagles made a surprising move on Tuesday in trading for a cornerback. However, it wasn’t the CB2 that fans have been dreaming of. The team traded CB Jameson Houston and a 2023 sixth-rounder to the Jacksonville Jaguars in exchange for second-year CB Josiah Scott. Here is all you need to know.
A fourth-round pick back in the 2020 NFL Draft, Scott stands at 5’9, 185 lbs, so will likely limited to a slot role in Philadelphia. As a rookie, he gave up six completions on seven targets for a total of 77 yards in 80 defensive snaps.
