Raiders trade young cornerback Jakorian Bennett to Eagles in surprise move
NY Post
The Eagles are always wheeling and dealing.
In the wee hours of Monday night, the Eagles traded interior defensive lineman Thomas Booker to the Raiders in exchange for outside cornerback Jakorian Bennett, in a deal that took some by surprise.
Booker, 25, was originally drafted by the Texans in the fifth round in 2022 before becoming a rotation player for the Super Bowl-winning Eagles last season.
Booker played in all 21 games — including the postseason — for Philadelphia, although he never started a game with stars Jalen Carter and Jordan Davis clogging things up in the middle.
Bennett, 24, is largely regarded as a promising young cornerback.
The trade sent some fans into rage.
