3 Free Agent Corners the Eagles Must Target to Replace Avonte Maddox

2. Myles Bryant

The 26-year-old Bryant is another intriguing option for the Eagles, as he has the versatility to play in the slot or out on the boundary. We know that Roseman loves to have versatility in the secondary, as we saw this past season, where rookies Eli Ricks and Kelee Ringo were asked to play different roles.

Bryant was one of the few bright spots on a New England Patriots squad that struggled a lot in 2023. The 5-foot-9 cornerback posted 77 combined tackles, seven tackles for loss, seven pass deflections, two forced fumbles, an interception, and a sack.

The former University of Washington cornerback also started in nine games in 2023, which was a career-high for Bryant. Bryant got targeted heavily this past season by opposing quarterbacks but held his own. He had a 75.6 completion percentage allowed on targets, a 103.4 pass rating when allowed, and gave up three touchdowns.

However, it’s good to remember that Bryant saw his playing time increase from his previous three seasons in the NFL.

Bryant’s ability to do a little bit of everything on defense and his age make him one of the more interesting cornerbacks on the open market. Spotrac projects Bryant to get paid this offseason as his calculated market value is a three-year, $25.1 million deal.
