Free agent Arnold Ebiketie reaches 1-year deal with Eagles
"Ebiketie, 27, had a career-low two sacks in 2025 with the Falcons, but that was more because he was part of a deeper rotation rather than the key piece of Atlanta's pass rush. The Cameroon-born player was 10th in the league in quarterback pressure rate (16.4%) among players with at least 150 pass-rush snaps, according to Next Gen Stats. That figure was a team high for Atlanta edge rushers."
"In 2024, Ebiketie led the Falcons with six sacks, before the team drafted Jalon Walker and James Pearce Jr. and signed Leonard Floyd in 2025. Under defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich, the Falcons had a franchise-record 57 sacks last season. Ebiketie excelled as a complementary piece."
Arnold Ebiketie, a 27-year-old linebacker, agreed to a one-year contract with the Philadelphia Eagles worth $7.3 million with $4.3 million fully guaranteed. In 2025 with the Falcons, Ebiketie recorded two sacks while operating in a deeper defensive rotation. Despite the low sack total, he ranked 10th in the NFL in quarterback pressure rate at 16.4% among players with at least 150 pass-rush snaps, leading Atlanta's edge rushers. Previously, Ebiketie had six sacks in both 2024 and 2023 after recording 2.5 sacks as a rookie in 2022. The Cameroon-born player was drafted by Atlanta in the second round from Penn State.
