6/30/25	7 Philadelphia Eagles who might earn their first Pro Bowl selection in 2025. The Eagles have one of the best rosters in the NFL with few holes or personnel deficits. Philadelphia suffered several losses in the secondary and defensive line, but managed to improve in the short term, while accumulating potential All-Pro talent in the draft. The first wave of free agency saw Josh Sweat ( Cardinals ), Milton Williams ( Patriots ), Kenneth Gainwell ( Steelers ), Mekhi Becton ( Chargers ), and Oren Burks ( Bengals ) all depart. On defense, Vic Fangio was forced to replace Darius Slay ( Steelers ), Isaiah Rodgers ( Vikings ), Avonte Maddox ( Lions ), and James Bradberry (UFA), all of whom departed following the Super Bowl roster.

6/25/25	Former Eagles RB Has Steelers Attention. One of the less discussed moves in regards to the Steelers offseason was their free agency signing of Kenneth Gainwell, who last played for the Philadelphia Eagles. The now Super Bowl Champion joined the team on a one-year deal at the beginning of free agency, and this was while Najee Harris was still a member of the team. Likely to take a backup role behind both Jaylen Warren and Kaleb Johnson, Gainwell enters a tough situation heading into the season.
