2025 Projections

Productive rookie season
DeJean registered 51 tackles (38 solo), including 0.5 sacks, one forced fumble and three fumble recoveries across 16 regular-season games in 2024.
ANALYSIS
DeJean was selected by the Eagles in the second round of the 2024 NFL Draft, 40th overall. He was mostly used on special teams in the first four games of the regular season, but he was promoted to the starting nickel corner position following the Eagles' Week 5 bye. DeJean played a crucial role in Philadelphia's championship run, and his best moment came in Super Bowl LIX against the Chiefs, when he picked off Patrick Mahomes for a 38-yard interception return for a touchdown. DeJean will be a linchpin for the Eagles' secondary in 2025 alongside safeties C.J. Gardner-Johnson and Reed Blankenship and outside corners Darius Slay and Quinyon Mitchell.

Jim Coventry reacts to the Philadelphia Eagles defeating the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX, led by Jalen Hurts and a suffocating defense.

The Chiefs might assign star corner Trent McDuffie to A.J. Brown, but if so they risk setting loose DeVonta Smith against Kansas City's more modest corners.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
The Eagles selected DeJean out of Iowa in the second round (40th overall) of the 2024 NFL Draft. He was considered a potential first-round talent, but a fractured fibula in November which cut short his final college season and caused him to skip the combine may have led to him slipping down the board. He was cleared for all football activities in early April and appears primed for a versatile role in Philadelphia's secondary, just like he had at Iowa, where he ended his college career with seven interceptions in 31 games.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Eagles aggressively pursue Friday
The Eagles traded three picks to move up to the 40th overall selection during the second round of the 2024 NFL Draft and pick DeJean, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
DeJean, who was a standout at Iowa and garnered both first-team All-American and Big Ten Defensive Back of the Year honors in 2023, had widely been projected as a first-round pick. However, with cornerback a position of need for Philadelphia and DeJean still on the board as the second round began Friday night, the Eagles opted to trade both of their second-round picks and a fifth-rounder to the division-rival Commanders, receiving the 40th and 78th overall selections and using the first of those to secure DeJean's services.
