2022 NFL trade deadline takeaways: All the biggest moves, and how they impact Eagles

The 2022 NFL Trade Deadline was the most active and historic day in league history, with 12 trades made on Tuesday leading up to the 4 p.m. ET deadline.

Before Tuesday, two significant moves were already made after Carolina sent Christian McCaffery to San Francisco and Robert Quinn moved from Chicago to Philadelphia.

Blockbuster deals were made, with the Vikings looking to keep pace with the Eagles by going out and acquiring pass-catching tight end T.J. Hockenson from the Lions.

Here are takeaways and observations from the moves with notes on how it impacts Philadelphia moving forward.

These two teams appear to be on a likely collision course in the NFC, with the Cowboys and Vikings having some say as well.

An already dynamic offense just got more explosive with the addition of the former Panthers star.

Once a potential trade target for the Eagles, the suspended Ridley is headed to Jacksonville to join Doug Pederson’s improving franchise.

Hines is headed to Buffalo in a trade that’ll see Indianapolis receive running back Zack Moss and a conditional 2023 sixth-round pick in the deal.

Hines has recorded 224 yards from scrimmage and one touchdown in seven games played this year, and the Eagles miss out on a dual-threat pass-catching running back.
