Huff, the former Jets pass rusher who agreed to a three-year contract with the Eagles worth more than $5o million, has just 2 1/2 sacks with the Eagles – tied for fifth on the defense with Graham – and just four hurries while playing just 37% of defensive snaps. Last year, Huff played 40% of the Jets’ snaps and finished with 10 sacks, 10 tackles for a loss and 21 quarterback hits.

This season, the Eagles rank 10th in the NFL in sacks per pass attempt after a slow start to the season.
