In the 2024 NFL season, the Philadelphia Eagles aim to return to the top of the NFC. Only two years ago, they represented the conference in the Super Bowl. While they fell short in that game, many believed they would have a solid chance to return to the big game in 2023.
Unfortunately for the Eagles, the 2023 season did not go as expected. While they appeared to be a real contender at the start of the year, they faltered in the second half. Everything came to an end in the Wild Card stage of the playoffs, when Philadelphia was eliminated by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Howie Roseman has made it clear that he would not tolerate another season like 2023 if he can avoid it. He has been aggressive in the summer, making moves to enhance the roster and coaching staff.
The Philadelphia Eagles signed free agent pass rusher Bryce Huff to a three-year, $51 million contract.
The Philadelphia Eagles are projected to have a massive breakout player in 2024.
Bleacher Report predicts that Huff will have a breakout season for the Eagles in 2024. Here’s what they had to say about the Eagles’ new pass rusher.
“If he can replicate his per-snap effectiveness from a year ago in a larger role in his new home, he may rack up 13-15 sacks. And if Huff wreaks such havoc in 2024, the Eagles may retake the NFC East.
At 26 years old, Huff’s arrival was one of the offseason’s most underappreciated moves. The Philadelphia Eagles believe they have acquired a potential star pass-rusher in the transaction.
In 2023, Huff made 29 tackles, 10 sacks, and defended a pass while with the New York Jets. He still has plenty of room to grow and improve. Roseman and company may have acquired one of the NFL’s finest pass-rushers for the 2024 season and beyond.
Granted, Huff will need to demonstrate that he can regularly be that guy as the spotlight shifts to him in the future. The Philadelphia Eagles already have an impressive defensive front, but the departure of Haason Reddick has created an opportunity for Huff to play a larger role.
It will be intriguing to see if he can raise his game to the next level. If he succeeds, he will play a significant role in determining if the Eagles can regain their status as real Super Bowl contenders.
