DeJean’s Contract Could Shake Up Eagles | Philadelphia Eagles News

Eagles GM Howie Roseman dropped a bombshell hint about Cooper DeJean’s future: they originally planned to draft him at 21, but snagged Quinyon Mitchell instead — and now DeJean might feel “owed” some cash, though Roseman assures he’ll be “financially set.” DeJean’s elite versatility — shutting down receivers, stopping the run, rushing the passer — earned him Pro Bowl and All-Pro honors last year. With his rookie deal entering year three, the Eagles face a pivotal offseason decision: will they pay him like a top cornerback (aiming for $35–40M/year) or adapt to his growing safety role? Roseman’s comments signal they’re ready to splurge to keep this game-changing talent locked in for the long haul — and could set a new precedent for other players like Mitchell.
