Edwards signed a one-year contract extension last season after replacing Eric Wilson and his ability to hold off 2022 third-round pick, Nakobe Dean, was supposed to dictate his future.
This season, Edwards led the Eagles in tackles and proved that he could be a three-down linebacker in the NFL.
He’ll now replace Roquan Smith at middle linebacker for a franchise on the rise.
