The Philadelphia Eagles have traded for Denver Broncos TE Albert Okwuegbunam, according to a report from Adam Schefter of ESPN. The reported cost is a late-round pick swap in 2025.
Okwuegbunam was a fourth-round pick of the Broncos in 2020. His career numbers:
Albert Okwuegbunam | Rec | Yards | YPC | TD |
2020 | 11 | 121 | 11.0 | 1 |
2021 | 33 | 330 | 10.0 | 2 |
2022 | 10 | 95 | 9.5 | 1 |
TOTAL | 54 | 546 | 10.1 | 4 |
Okwuegbunam is a height-weight-speed freak who ran a 4.49 40 at 6'5, 258 at the 2020 Combine.
His athletic traits have just not yet translated into consistent on-field production. At the cost of a late-round pick swap, Okwuegbunam is perhaps worth a flier. The Eagles have their new Tyree Jackson.
We'll have more on Albert O soon.
