As the Eagles work to get under the salary cap, teams around the league are looking to steal their free-agent talent.
After Jalen Mills inked a deal with New England, Rudy Ford is now heading to Jacksonville.
Ford was acquired by Philadelphia in a trade with Arizona during the 2019 preseason and played a key role on the Eagles’ special teams units that season.
Ford ranked sixth on the roster in special teams snaps (213, 47 percent) and tied for the sixth-most special teams tackles (5).
