What happened: The Philadelphia Eagles are promoting Adam Berry to assistant general manager, according to Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo. Berry joined the organization in 2023 after a 14-year run at Goldman Sachs and was elevated to vice president of football operations and strategy in 2024. The report says he has played a key role in player personnel, salary cap strategy and negotiations, and will also participate in the NFL's revamped Accelerator Program.
Why it matters: The move gives Philadelphia a key front-office elevation after recent executive turnover, including the departures of assistant GM Alec Halaby and senior vice president Bryce Johnston. It also keeps a major cap and negotiations voice in place for an Eagles team that has already been active this spring, including its draft-day trade up to No. 20. In the NFL offseason, stability in the front office can shape contract talks, roster construction and how aggressively a contender attacks the 2026 season.
By the numbers: - Team: Philadelphia Eagles - Executive: Adam Berry - New title: Assistant GM - Previous public title: Vice President of Football Operations and Strategy - Eagles hire date: 2023 - Prior background: 14 years at Goldman Sachs - Additional context: Assistant GM Alec Halaby left the organization on April 28, 2026; senior vice president Bryce Johnston also departed that week - Accelerator context: CBS Sports reported the NFL's rebooted Front Office and Coaching Accelerator Program is scheduled to begin May 18, 2026
What to watch: Watch for an official team announcement and any additional Eagles front-office reshuffling in the wake of this promotion. Berry's expanded role could become clearer as Philadelphia moves deeper into offseason roster and contract decisions.
