Offensive tackle Mekhi Becton, a former first-round draft pick of the New York Jets, plans to sign a one-year deal worth up to $5.5 million with the Philadelphia Eagles, agents Alan Herman and Jared Fox told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Sunday.

The signing, which was encouraged by Eagles offensive line coach Jeff Stoutland, is pending a physical, his agents said.

Becton, drafted 11th overall by the Jets in 2020, has endured a rollercoaster career -- a promising rookie year, two seasons wiped out by injuries and a comeback year in 2023.
