Eagles Lose Salary Cap Executive Jake Rosenberg

Mar 27, 2024 2:31 PM

Jake Rosenberg will leave the Philadelphia Eagles next month when his contract expires.

Rosenberg is the Eagles' long-time salary cap expert and one of Howie Roseman's closest aides. Rosenberg is leaving the Eagles in hopes of someday becoming a general manager. 

“Over a pretty extended period of time I have just thought to myself that if it doesn’t seem like it’s in the cards for me to advance in this league, and have a chance to keep pushing and growing, that at the end of the day, what is involved to do this in terms of a life perspective, it’s not going to be worth it,” Rosenberg told The Inquirer.

Rosenberg and Roseman have been friends since elementary school.

“Over the last 12-plus years, Jake has been so important to our team and a big part of our success,” Roseman said this week at the NFL meetings. “More importantly, he’s a true friend who has built lifelong relationships here, throughout this league and beyond. While I hate to lose him, I wish him nothing but success going forward.
 
“I wish we could keep him, but he and I have always discussed how important it is to continue to grow and look for new challenges. He deserves the opportunity to become a free agent and whatever he decides is next, I know he’s going to be successful.”

Saquon Barkley First Considered Texans In Free Agency

Mar 27, 2024 1:26 PM

Saquon Barkley made headlines when he signed with the Philadelphia Eagles earlier this month.

However, Barkley admitted on the "New Heights" podcast with Jason and Travis Kelce that the Eagles weren't the first team he considered when he realized he'd be leaving the New York Giants.

"I'm gonna be honest here, that's what the show is for. The first team that had my real interest was Houston [Texans]," the running back said. "I got to communicate with C.J. [Stroud] and a couple of those boys. But this was before you could actually put offers on the table and talk to teams."

The Texans ended up acquiring Joe Mixon in a trade with the Cincinnati Bengals and signing him to a contract extension.

Brian Daboll May Take Over Play-Calling Duties For Giants

Mar 27, 2024 8:11 AM

Brian Daboll admitted Tuesday that he's considering taking over play-calling duties for the New York Giants.

"It's something I'm looking into," Daboll said. "I think there's 20 head coaches at this point in time that call plays in the league (either offensively or defensively). … There might be a little bit more. I've been doing a bunch of research, but no decision has been made. I'm still going through that process, thinking about what we need to do."

The Giants struggled offensively in 2023. Since Daboll was hired in New York, offensive coordinator Mike Kafka has primarily been the man calling the shots.

Daboll considering returning to his roots as a play-caller underscores the importance of the 2024 season. 

"Certainly," he said. "I did it for a long time. There's a lot of things that go into it. Part of the evaluation that I talked about, there are some other things that I'm looking into. I take my time and do what I think is best for the team."

Mar 27, 2024 8:05 AM

The NFL has yet to approve Tom Brady's bid for a minority ownership stake in the Las Vegas Raiders, but Roger Goodell is not concerned.

Last May, the Raiders reached an agreement with Brady for him to join the organization's ownership group, pending league approval.

Dak Prescott To Play Out Contract, Become Free Agent In 2025

Mar 26, 2024 2:17 PM

Dak Prescott and the Dallas Cowboys plan on not restructuring his contract this offseason, which will allow him to be a free agent in 2025. The Cowboys and Prescott have "a mutual understanding of his contract situation" despite him being in a contract year.

Prescott is set to count $59.45 million against the cap in 2024. He has a $29 million base salary and has a $5 million roster bonus due on the fifth day of the league year.

Prescott previously said he's optimistic about his future with the Cowboys despite the uncertainity.

"I'm definitely confident," Prescott said. "Obviously it helps the team. It's important for the numbers ... That is a process. Both sides understand that. Everything's great. It'll happen."
