Which gives us even more cap room this year.

Per NFL.com

11. The Philadelphia Eagles announced they restructured wide receiver Alshon Jeffery's contract on Saturday. Rapoport reported the deal takes the receiver's $11.75 million this season and turns most of it into a signing bonus. Rapoport added that this means $11.5 million next year is now fully guaranteed.

Mature, sensible signature required for responsible position. Good prospects for the right candidate. Apply within.

Surprised by this.

With $20 M of cap room already and FA bring over, why make more cap room this year?

I guess it is not for cap reasons but for AJ to give him the security of SB instead of making him earn it through Salary.

Did they ever sweeten Jenkins deal? I remember he squaked a little bit earlier in OTAs .

At least we know it wasn't for Antonio Brown.

Don't recall anything on Jenkins, but the appropriate time to do any deal is a couple of weeks into the season when it looks like a reward for continued elite play rather than at the time as a response to a player grumbling.
