Eagles DE Derek Barnett Seeks Trade for More Playing Time

Philadelphia Eagles defensive end Derek Barnett, through his agent Drew Rosenhaus, is exploring the possibility of a trade to find more playing time elsewhere, according to sources. While the Eagles intend to keep Barnett, they acknowledge their deep pass-rush roster may limit his opportunities. If he remains with the team, Barnett is likely to have a rotational role. The deadline for teams to trim their rosters to 53 players is approaching. Barnett, who was drafted by the Eagles in 2017, has recorded 21.5 sacks over six seasons and is currently part of a strong edge-rush group.
