Smith had 240 receptions for 3,178 yards and 19 touchdowns in three seasons with the Eagles. Smith is the 2020 Heisman Trophy winner after helping Alabama win two national championships in four seasons with the Crimson Tide.

He will sign a $75 million contract extension that includes $51 million guaranteed in his new deal. His best season came in 2022, when he helped lead the Eagles to the Super Bowl with 95 catches and 1,196 yards.

Smith's extension continues a busy offseason for the Eagles.

They signed former Giants tight end Saquon Barkley and linebackers Bryce Huff and Zach Bown, three key free-agent additions that were part of a quick roster overhaul following the Eagles' late-season collapse. Safety CJ Gardner-Johnson is back a year after the team allowed him to leave in free agency. Wide receiver DeVante Parker has $4.69 million guaranteed on his one-year deal, and the Eagles also signed offensive tackle Matt Hennessy.

The Eagles also agreed to terms with former Tampa Bay quarterback Devin White on a one-year deal worth $7.5 million.

Also, kicker Jake Elliott, two-time Pro Bowl linebacker Landon Dickerson and defensive end Brandon Graham all signed deals with the Eagles.

Jason Kelce and Fletcher Cox retired, leaving the Eagles with four players remaining from the 2017 Super Bowl season.
