Eagles Trade Arnold Ebiketie to Bengals
56 sourcesUpdated Nov 10, 20261 min read
The Bengals called off a reported trade with the Eagles for edge rusher Arnold Ebiketie that would have sent Philadelphia a 2027 sixth-round pick. Cincinnati withdrew because acquiring Ebiketie, whom the Eagles signed as a compensatory free agent, could cost the Bengals a projected 2027 third-round compensatory pick tied to Trey Hendrickson’s departure for Baltimore. The reversal was not related to Ebiketie’s health or performance, and he remains with Philadelphia unless another deal is made before the deadline. Cincinnati had sought defensive help for a playoff push, while Philadelphia has been selling players amid a losing season.

No right coverage yet — a bubble gap.
Philadelphia is just collecting picks now instead of trying to fix the season, which feels like the right long-term play.
Bengals got solid rotational help without giving up much, especially after losing Howell. Smart low-cost addition.
Eagles fans have to accept this is the right call at 2-7, even if losing another veteran stings a bit.
