Former NFL QB Nathan Peterman is pivoting to a new career path in the business by working his way toward becoming an NFLPA-certified player agent for @RangeSportsRMP, which repped him as a player. From @SBJ 👇🏼 https://t.co/E9OFycnjrV

Bombshell: The Browns are finalizing a trade that will send two-time Defensive Player of the Year Myles Garrett to the Los Angeles Rams, per @rapsheet, @TomPelissero and me.

In exchange for Garrett, the Rams are expected to send Pro-Bowl edge Jared Verse, a 2027 first-round pick and other draft-pick compensation still being negotiated to the Browns.

Sean Mannion on the importance of quarterback footwork in his scheme:

"You train the quarterback to really understand that and listen to his feet. If your footwork is sound and your rhythm is good, it’s just going to feel like the ball wants to come out. It really starts with the schematic element, how do we make sure all the different route distributions and timing when you’re moving people around, how do you make sure the timing of the play is sound. And then how do we train the quarterback to understand what that timing is and how to best operate in it.” #Eagles

The #Eagles are promoting Adam Berry to assistant GM, sources tell me and @RapSheet, furthering a fast-paced climb in the NFL for the former Goldman Sachs executive.

The brother of #Browns GM Andrew Berry, Adam originally joined Philly’s front office in 2023.

[Ian Rapoport @RapSheet]

The #Eagles are promoting Adam Berry to Assistant GM, per me and @MikeGarafolo.

Berry, a former Goldman Sachs executive and Princeton football captain has played a key role in player personnel, cap strategy and negotiations. He will also be a participant in the revamped accelerator program this month.

Usual division rivals are now community partners: the Philadelphia Eagles and New York Giants joint efforts to grow girls flag football in New Jersey reached a milestone today, when NJSIAA voted to recognize girls flag football as a state sanctioned sport at the high school level. New Jersey is now the 21st state in the country to officially declare girls flag football a sanctioned sport – a league-wide initiative that has been embraced and supported by the 32 NFL teams.

#Falcons have hired #Eagles exec Bryce Johnston as SVP of Football Adminstration/Senior Personnel Executive. Johnston will lead salary-cap strategy, serve as lead contract negotiator and be a key advisor to Ian Cunningham and Matt Ryan for roster building and long-term strategy.

[Zach Berman @ZBerm]

This is a major loss for the Eagles. Bryce Johnston was a a key figure in the Eagles' salary cap management and contract negotations — especially in the two years since Jake Rosenberg departed.

My understanding is that the Eagles expected front office departures after the draft. This is a big one.

[Ian Rapoport @RapSheet]

After 17 years with the #Eagles organization, assistant general manager Alec Halaby has decided to step away to start a new professional chapter of his career, per me and @MikeGarafolo.

The personnel executive was a key contributor to both Eagles Super Bowl championships.
