The J.J. Arcega-Whiteside era is over in Philadelphia, as the Eagles are trading the former wide receiver turned tight end.
The Eagles’ second-round pick in 2019 has just 16 catches for 290 yards and one touchdown entering his fourth NFL season and was targeted only five times last season, catching two passes for 36 yards.
With the writing already on the wall, Arcega-Whiteside switched positions to tight end in the offseason after gaining about 25-pounds. During his preseason debut, Arcega-Whiteside dropped his only target on the night and has spent most of the training camp dealing with various injuries.
Now he’ll move on to Seattle with an opportunity to make the roster at multiple positions.
