The Philadelphia Eagles have long been among the premier teams in the NFC, and they can thank general manager Howie Roseman for a portion of their success.

Roseman, a two-time PFWA Executive of the Year, has routinely built quality rosters during his time in Philadelphia. He is a top-tier drafter, but has also shown a consistent ability to retain quality players on reasonable contracts.

Case and point, the Eagles have made it to Super Bowl 59 having just one player on a contract worth over $100 million. No player on the team has a cap-hit higher than $16 million in 2024, which has allowed them to balance their roster and create one of the most talented starting lineups in the NFL.

Who are the Eagles' highest-paid players as they look to win their second-ever Lombardi Trophy? Here's a look at Philadelphia's top earners.

Who are the Eagles' highest-paid players?

Jalen Hurts is the Eagles' highest-paid player and is Philadelphia's only player with a deal paying him more than $100 million in total value. That said, the Eagles structured Hurts' deal in such a way that his cap hit ranks just second on the team behind Lane Johnson, which is part of what enabled the team to build a balanced roster for 2024.

A majority of the Eagles' spending comes on the offensive side of the ball, as their top six players in average annual value (AAV) are all on that side of the ball. Saquon Barkley is notably absent from the Eagles' 10 highest earners in terms of AAV, total contract and cap hit, another feather in the cap of Roseman.
