Eagles trade Byron Maxwell and Kiko Alonso to Dolphins, report says

The Eagles and Dolphins on Monday agreed on a trade to send cornerback Byron Maxwell and linebacker Kiko Alonso to Miami, according to NFL Media.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reported on NFL Live that Miami would send draft picks to Philadelphia as compensation. The value of the draft picks has not been disclosed.

Maxwell played well during his time in Seattle, which led to a big contract with the Eagles in 2015. His season got off to a disastrous start against the Falcons, and it only improved slightly throughout the rest of the year.
