The Cincinnati Bengals made another addition to their defense Tuesday, acquiring edge rusher Arnold Ebiketie from the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for a 2027 sixth-round draft pick, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Cincinnati (6-2) has spent much of the past several months trying to improve its defense, starting with heavy spending in free agency (EDGE Boye Mafe, DL Jonathan Allen, S Bryan Cook) and then via trade, sending the 2026 No. 10 overall pick to the Giants for DL Dexter Lawrence.

Still, the team felt it needed reinforcements at EDGE. Mafe has very much delivered with 5.5 sacks, but no other edge rusher has more than two. Ebiketie, who signed a one-year deal with Philadelphia this offseason, does not have a sack this year, but he recorded a pair of six-sack seasons for the Falcons in 2023 and 2024. He has 23 total tackles and eight hurries this season.

This continues the Eagles' massive sale amid a disastrous 2026. Monday, Philadelphia (2-7) parted ways with standout defensive tackle Jordan Davis, sending him to the Jaguars for a 2027 first-round pick and a 2029 second-round pick. Earlier in the year, they sent center Cam Jurgens to the Ravens for a 2027 fifth-round pick and a 2028 second-round pick.

Philadelphia now has 10 picks in the 2027 draft, including one extra selection in the first round and two extra selections in the fifth round.

CBS Sports will have grades for this deal shortly.
