Eagles Secure Cam Jurgens with $68 Million Extension

The Philadelphia Eagles have signed Pro Bowl center Cam Jurgens to a four-year, $68 million extension, making him the second-highest-paid center in NFL history and securing his place through 2029. This deal is part of the Eagles' broader strategy to keep their core offensive line intact, following similar extensions for other key linemen. Jurgens stepped in for retired center Jason Kelce last season, started 16 games, and played a crucial role in the team's Super Bowl run, earning high marks for his run-blocking. Despite undergoing a back procedure in February, Jurgens and the team are confident he will be fully healthy for training camp. His extension further solidifies the Eagles' commitment to protecting quarterback Jalen Hurts and maintaining a dominant run game. The team still faces some uncertainty at right guard but views Jurgens as a foundational piece moving forward.
