This sum aligns with the market rate for an elite pass rusher who recorded 11 sacks, 60 tackles, 10 tackles for loss, and two fumble recoveries last season.

Hargrave, alongside Haason Reddick (16 sacks), Brandon Graham (11), and Josh Sweat (11), helped make the Eagles the first team since 1982 to have four players with double-digit sacks in a single season.
