He’s toxic in the locker room, plus he has a huge contract; I don’t think anyone’s going to trade a first-round pick for him. It would be different if he were a serious person and didn’t cause any problems in the locker room. But that’s not the case.

It remains to be seen the Eagles chances of actually trading him. It would feel like a major surprise if they made this trade also.
