While Howie Roseman is currently buried in 2022 NFL free agency business — attempting to make moves he deems will make the Philadelphia Eagles contenders next season — he’s also now the recipient of his own new deal. The 46-year-old is hot off deals that include a headline contract to linebacker Haason Reddick, but owner Jeffrey Lurie isn’t naive to the fact Roseman himself is set to be a free agent in 2023 or, at least, he was until this week. To that point, Lurie and the Eagles have reportedly signed the team’s executive vice president/general manager to a three-year extension, per The Philly Voice, locking him in through the 2025 season.
A native of Brooklyn, NY, Roseman has spent the entirety of his NFL career as an executive with the Eagles, joining them in 2000 as salary cap staff counsel before climbing his way through the ranks to become vice president of player personnel in 2008 and then general manager in 2010. He was later awarded another title in being named executive vice president of football operations in 2014, and he constructed the team that led the Eagles to the franchise’s first-ever Super Bowl win following a special 2017 season.
That turned out to be the last hoorah for players like Super Bowl MVP Nick Foles, and though things didn’t go as planned with Carson Wentz (eventually traded to the Indianapolis Colts in 2021, now traded to the Washington Commanders in 2022), Roseman is putting his chips in on former second-round pick Jalen Hurts to get the Eagles back to The Big Game.
There’s still much work to be done in Philadelphia if that is to happen in the near future, but one thing is for sure, and that’s the fact it will be Roseman overseeing it all for at least three more seasons beyond 2022.
