The Philadelphia Eagles’ ongoing sell-off ahead of the 2026 NFL Trade Deadline has to pivot because the Cincinnati Bengals have reportedly backed out of a trade that had been agreed upon
In case you missed it, the Eagles had agreed to trade defensive lineman Arnold Ebiketie to the Bengals for a 2027 sixth-round pick. However, the trade has since been called off (h/t Ian Rapoport) because Cincy did not want to lose a projected future compensatory draft pick that it would have given up had the deal been finalized.
2026 NFL TRADE DEADLINE TRACKER
One of the things I love about following this league is that there is always a new storyline to follow. Every day, there are sentences that are being written about this beautiful game and whatever surrounds it for the first time in human history. I certainly feel as if this is a first:
Arnold Ebiketie was signed as a compensatory free agent by the Eagles. The Bengals lost 3 CFAs and signed 2 (Cordell Volson not qualifying), thus while they gain a 2027 6th rounder, they lose a 2027 3rd round comp pick that was via Trey Hendrickson going to Baltimore.

In addition to this being a funky trade story, I have three more takeaways as we approach the 3 p.m. CT NFL Trade Deadline:
Based on this deal, the cost of doing business to upgrade at the edge is a sixth-round pick in the 2027 NFL Draft. This is pertinent information for the Chicago Bears, who have been rumored to be interested in defensive end help.EVERYTHING BEARS FANS NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE 2026 NFL TRADE DEADLINE
With this Bengals-Eagles deal falling through, maybe we should (1) keep the Eagles in mind as a possible trade partner, (2) view edge rusher Arnold Ebiketie as a possible target, and (3) recognize that Cincinnati is among the teams also searching for help off the edge. As someone with the “Trader Lu” moniker in several fantasy leagues, I understand the importance of knowing who you’re going up against in trade talks.MORE: Bears Head Coach Ben Johnson is Playing the Waiting Game
Nothing is official until it is officially official. Don’t you dare roll your eyes at me! Not after we saw the Raiders and Ravens trade involving Maxx Crosby come undone this past spring. And if you’re a Bears fan who’s been here long enough to remember the Larry Ogunjobi era, you know exactly why I am quick to say that nothing is official until it is officially official.

Sam Greene / USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn ImagesThe NFL Trade Deadline has changed drastically in the 10 seasons that we have been covering it here at BN. In the beginning, trades were rare. The first notable in-season Bears deal we covered was when Chicago traded for Chargers wide receiver Dontrelle Inman. What’s funny about that trade is that the conditional pick the Bears sent to the Chargers never vested because Inman didn’t play enough snaps. So the Bears got eight games of Inman, who caught 23 passes, picked up 334 yards, and 1 touchdown, while playing 416 offensive snaps (87%) in Chicago.
