Eagles trading ex-Jet Bryce Huff to 49ers in Robert Saleh reunion

Eagles trading ex-Jet Bryce Huff to 49ers in Robert Saleh reunion

The Eagles are moving on from edge rusher Bryce Huff.

Philadelphia and the 49ers are working to finalize a deal that would send the 27-year-old to San Francisco in exchange for a mid-round draft pick, according to ESPN.

The trade would not be processed until after June 1, but Huff has already restructured his contract to facilitate the transaction.

While he was set to make $17 million this season from Philadelphia, Huff will now receive $9.05 million from the Eagles and the remaining $7.95 million from San Francisco.

The move comes after Huff missed the Eagles’ OTAs this week and reportedly hadn’t taken part in any of the team’s spring workouts.

While these practices and workouts are voluntary, Huff was in no position to be skipping them after his disappointing first season with the team.

Huff spent the first four years of his NFL career with the Jets before joining the Eagles this past season on a three-year deal worth as much as $51.1 million and winning a Super Bowl with the franchise.

After 10 sacks in his final season with New York, Huff had just 2.5 sacks in a disappointing first campaign in Philadelphia.

He will look to return to his pre-Philadelphia success as he reunites with 49ers defensive coordinator Robert Saleh. Huff played three seasons under Saleh when Saleh head coached the Jets.
