The Philadelphia Eagles have undergone several changes following their Super Bowl 59 win. One of the biggest offseason changes so far saw offensive coordinator Kellen Moore accept a head coaching offer with the New Orleans Saints, ending his time in the City of Brotherly Love after just one season.
Although many Eagles fans are hoping for Moore to experience success as a head coach, his exit hasn't been without controversy. The former Philadelphia OC has already been luring coaching staff members to New Orleans, and it wouldn't be shocking if he tried to bring some players to the Saints, too.
With that in mind, here are three Eagles players who might join Moore's roster in New Orleans this offseason.
1. Britain Covey, WR
Britain Covey is one Eagle who could use a fresh start following an injury-plagued 2024 campaign. Although he ended up winning his first Super Bowl ring, the former Utah product was limited to just five appearances due to a combination of neck and shoulder injuries.
So, why would Covey follow Moore to New Orleans?
For starters, franchises are always looking to improve their special teams, and the 27-year-old playmaker can help in that regard. Covey led the NFL with 417 punt return yards in 2023 and could give a big boost to a Saints team that just finished with the seventh-worst special teams grade on Pro Football Focus.
Even if Covey isn't used as a return man, Moore could be interested in using him to add to the Saints' WR depth. After all, the Provo, UT native went from averaging just 3.6 offensive snaps per game in 2023 to an average of 10.0 per appearance in his lone season under Moore, meaning the duo could potentially expand on that workload in New Orleans.
Now that Covey is hitting free agency next month, his potentially following Moore to the Saints is a legitimate possibility.
