The Philadelphia Eagles have acquired cornerback Jaire Alexander in a trade with the Baltimore Ravens, the team announced Saturday afternoon.

The Eagles acquired the Second Team All-Pro corner along with a 2027 7th-round pick from the Ravens in exchange for a 2026 6th-round pick. The 2026 sixth-round pick that originally belonged to Denver, the team said.

Alexander is expected to help shore up the second cornerback spot opposite Quinyon Mitchell.

Alexander, a former two-time Pro Bowl corner with Green Bay, signed a one-year deal with the Ravens in the offseason and has only played in two games this season, recording five tackles.

The veteran corner will make his Eagles debut against his former team, the Packers, on Monday Night Football in Week 10 after the bye week.

Earlier this week, the Eagles traded WR John Metchie III and a 2027 sixth-round pick to the Jets for CB Michael Carter and a 2027 seventh-round pick.

Alexander and Carter join a cornerback group that includes Quinyon Mitchell, Cooper DeJean, Adoree' Jackson, Kelee Ringo, Mac Williams, and Jakorian Bennett, who is listed on IR.
