We have signed OT Markel Bell. All eight 2026 Draft picks are now under contract. https://t.co/AyXpCLTjq0

What happened: The Philadelphia Eagles have signed offensive tackle Markel Bell. With Bell under contract, all eight of the team's 2026 draft picks are now signed.

Why it matters: Getting the entire draft class signed ahead of training camp removes a contract distraction and clears every rookie to report on schedule. Adding a developmental tackle gives Philadelphia another young piece to build along the offensive line.

What to watch: Bell and the rest of the rookie class will compete for roster spots and depth roles once training camp opens.
