What happened: Philadelphia takes the field tonight as a shell of its Super Bowl LIX group. The roster carries a mountain of cap debt that frames every decision. A retool in 2027 is the likely path.

Why it matters: Cap debt limits how aggressively the roster can be reshaped around the current core. The 2027 timeline defines the front-office choices starting from tonight.

What to watch: Tonight's game provides the next data point before offseason choices arrive.
