Daily News | Assessing the Eagles’ options at the safety position after C.J. Gardner-Johnson departs in free agency
Marcus Epps signed a two-year deal worth $12 million with the Raiders, whileDuring his introductory press conference Monday afternoon in Detroit, Gardner-Johnson told reporters he held no ill feelings with the Eagles after turning down a potential multi-year contract at the start of free agency.
It’d be a risk for the Eagles to lean on youth by pairing up a rookie with Blankenship, but the veteran presence at cornerback will help solidify the secondary — no matter who ends up patrolling the third level of the defense. Following the first major waves of free agency, there are lingering players still searching for a new home. The safety market, in particular, has been volatile. Jessie Bates is the lone outlier, while a majority of the other free agents signed for less than half of Bates’ annual average of $16 million. Next closest are Gardner-Johnson and Vonn Bell, who signed at $7.5 million per year with the Panthers.
Over the past two seasons, Rapp has recorded 122 tackles, 12 passes defensed, six interceptions, and four quarterback hits. He also was a starter for the Rams team that won Super Bowl LVI.
