After considering an early retirement, Landon Dickerson joined Lane Johnson in agreeing to return to the Eagles. But the Pro Bowl guard will no longer be tied to the same contract.
Philadelphia is removing a year from Dickerson’s deal, according to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler. The sides’ revised contract — a two-year deal worth around $36MM — removes the 2028 season. Dickerson had been tied to a four-year, $84MM pact and was previously due $39MM from 2026-27. A slight pay cut appears in the works, with Fowler adding incentives would help Dickerson reach his original amount.
Dickerson, 27, is one of the NFL’s best guards. The three-time Pro Bowler carried a $10MM guarantee for 2026 and is due $15.7MM this year, per Fowler. But the Eagles stand to save a bit of cap space; Dickerson was tied to a $10.28MM number. That is fairly low, but the Eagles regularly backload their deals through option bonuses and void years. Dickerson’s pact already included four void years.
More to come.
