Eagles Trade Cam Jurgens to Ravens for Two Picks

Baltimore addresses its center crisis by acquiring two-time Pro Bowler Cam Jurgens.

By Cole Hartwell

The Philadelphia Eagles have traded two-time Pro Bowl offensive lineman Cam Jurgens and a 2027 seventh-round pick to the Baltimore Ravens for a 2027 fifth-round pick and a 2028 second-round pick. The deal was first reported by ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

What happened

Jurgens, a Pro Bowler in each of the last two seasons, spent most of 2024-25 at center before shifting to left guard this year while Drew Kendall started at center. He has struggled at guard and is currently in concussion protocol after self-reporting symptoms following the Eagles’ Week 4 loss to the Rams, according to Yahoo Sports.

The Ravens lost their top three centers to injury: Danny Pinter (torn patellar tendon in camp), Jovaughn Gwyn (ankle) and Ethan Pocic (knee) in Week 3. That forced rookie Vega Ioane to move from right guard to center. Jurgens now allows Ioane to return to guard and gives Baltimore a long-term answer after he signed a four-year, $68 million extension last offseason.

Context

The Eagles have now lost three Week 1 offensive line starters. Landon Dickerson is on injured reserve with a knee issue, and Lane Johnson announced his retirement on Tuesday. Philadelphia will play the Jaguars in London on Sunday with a reshaped line. They reportedly felt confident enough in Kendall to make the deal.

What’s next

Jurgens must clear concussion protocol before he can play. The Eagles face the Jaguars in London on Sunday, while the Ravens look to integrate him into a line protecting Lamar Jackson, who is dealing with an ankle injury.

More about the Eagles trading two-time Pro Bowl center Cam Jurgens and a 2027 seventh-round pick to the Baltimore Ravens in exchange for a 2027 fifth-round pick and a 2028 second-round pick:

Trade: Eagles are sending two-time Pro Bowl center Cam Jurgens and a 2027 7th-round pick to the Ravens in exchange for a 2027 5th-round pick and a 2028 2nd-round pick, sources tell ESPN.

🏈 Fantasy impact

This move should boost the Ravens’ offense, particularly the run game and Lamar Jackson’s pass protection, once Jurgens is cleared from concussion protocol. Derrick Henry and the Ravens’ backs get a clearer path between the tackles with Ioane back to his natural right guard spot. For the Eagles, this is the third major loss to their offensive line in two days, which raises concern for Jalen Hurts’ protection and the overall efficiency of the offense. Saquon Barkley’s rushing ceiling may dip, and Hurts could face more pressure. If you have Ravens skill players, consider them slightly more stable; if you roster Eagles, this adds risk. Monitor news on Jurgens’ timeline, but Baltimore’s line is in better shape now.

Quick answers

What did the Eagles get for Cam Jurgens?

The Eagles received a 2027 fifth-round pick and a 2028 second-round pick from the Ravens, along with a 2027 seventh-round pick going back to Baltimore.

Why did the Ravens trade for Cam Jurgens?

Baltimore lost its top three centers to injury (Danny Pinter, Jovaughn Gwyn, Ethan Pocic) and needed a starter. Jurgens is a two-time Pro Bowler who can play center immediately.

Who starts at center for the Eagles now?

Drew Kendall has been starting at center since Week 2 and is expected to continue for the Eagles.
