Titans free safety Kevin Byard making an interception on a pass intended for Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Chase Claypool on Dec. 19, 2021.The deal with the Tennessee Titans will cost the Eagles fifth- and sixth-round draft picks in 2024 as well as veteran safety Terrell Edmunds, according to league sources who confirmed an NFL Network report.
A Philadelphia native who attended high school in Georgia, Byard quickly became one of the most productive safeties in the league after he was drafted in the third round out of Middle Tennessee State in 2016. He hasn’t missed a game in his eight-year career and has logged at least 80 tackles in each of the last six seasons.Byard has 47 total tackles and a fumble recovery so far this year but has yet to record an interception or pass breakup on 21 targets, according to Pro Football Focus.
Blankenship, also a former Middle Tennessee State star, has become a steady presence on the back end of the defense this year. Once the 24-year-old returns, the Eagles will have two reliable starters with complementary skill sets who can both make plays on the ball.
