Fletcher Cox Could Call It Quits

Multiple sources believe Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle Fletcher Cox will retire at some point this offseason, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Eagles center Jason Kelce officially announced his retirement from the NFL on Monday, so there's a very real chance that the Eagles will be forced to replace two legends on opposite sides of the ball this offseason. The 33-year-old Cox, the former 12th overall pick by the Eagles in 2012 out of Mississippi State, has spent all 12 of his NFL seasons in Philadelphia and was named to six straight Pro Bowls from 2015-20. In 15 regular-season contests in 2023, he had 33 tackles (15 solo), five sacks, 17 QB hits, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery for Philly. Cox missed a game with a groin injury and was rested in the Week 18 regular-season finale.
