The Philadelphia Eagles have overhauled their defensive staff and must now adjust their personnel to fit the new scheme. Part of that will involve bringing in some new pass rushers and moving on from others who currently line the roster. That includes Pro Bowler Josh Sweat.

The Athletic's Dianna Russini reports that the Eagles have been shopping Sweat and Haason Reddick over the past several weeks as they prepare to pursue Bryce Huff.

The good news for Philly is that there won’t be a shortage of potential suitors. NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reports that the Eagles already have trade calls regarding Sweat.
