The Cincinnati Bengals have acquired edge rusher Arnold Ebiketie from the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for a 2027 sixth-round draft pick, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Trade Details

The Bengals are sending a 2027 sixth-round pick to the Eagles to complete the deal. The trade deadline is set for 4 p.m. ET on Tuesday.

Player Background

Ebiketie signed a one-year deal with Philadelphia this offseason. He was originally a second-round pick by the Atlanta Falcons in 2022 and played four seasons with the Falcons before joining the Eagles as a free agent. He has recorded 16.5 sacks in his 76 career games.

This season, Ebiketie has recorded 25 total tackles with zero sacks and two quarterback hits in nine games. He played 48% of the Eagles' defensive snaps.

Eagles' Recent Moves

The trade is part of a series of moves by the Eagles. Earlier, Philadelphia traded center Cam Jurgens to the Ravens and defensive tackle Jordan Davis to the Jaguars. The Eagles sit at 2-7 and have lost seven straight games.

Bengals Context

The Bengals are 6-2 and are coming off a four-game winning streak. The team has made defensive additions in free agency and via trade, including sending the 2026 No. 10 overall pick to the Giants for DL Dexter Lawrence.

Why it matters

The trade gives Cincinnati additional depth at edge rusher ahead of the deadline while adding a draft pick for Philadelphia as the Eagles continue to shed contracts.
