The Philadelphia Eagles’ offseason just got a lot spicier. Star linebacker Haason Reddick, fresh off a dominant 2023 season, has been granted permission to seek a trade, sending shockwaves through the NFL landscape. With Reddick on the move, where will he land, and what does it mean for the Eagles’ future?

Reddick’s departure leaves a gaping hole in the Eagles’ defense. He racked up 11 sacks and 29 tackles in 2023, solidifying himself as a crucial piece of their pass rush. But with the Eagles set to lose a whopping 88.8% of their linebacker snaps from last season (third-highest in the league!), a trade makes sense financially and strategically. So, where might Reddick be soaring next?

Pro Football Focus (PFF) has identified three potential landing spots for linebackers like Reddick:

Seattle Seahawks: The Seahawks are all linebackers-land after being on the verge of losing Bobby Wagner and Jordyn Brooks to free agency. Reddick’s versatility would be a perfect fit for their new defensive scheme under coach Mike Macdonald. Think ferocious pass rushing alongside Darrell Taylor? Yes, please! Next up? The Panthers.

Carolina Panthers: The Panthers are another team in desperate need of edge help, especially with Frankie Luvu likely departing. Haason Reddick could reunite with former defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero and bolster a defense on the rise. Imagine him lining up opposite Brian Burns—nightmare fuel for opposing quarterbacks! But the next team on the list might need him more.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers: The Bucs could be losing both Devin White and Lavonte David, making them prime candidates for Reddick’s services. His veteran presence and pass-rushing prowess would be a major boost for a team looking to contend. Just picture Reddick alongside Shaq Barrett—a fearsome duo ready to terrorize the NFC South! So, what’s next for the linebacker?
