In a move that will likely leave several Eagles irate, Fletcher Cox dropped almost 40 spots on the NFL Network’s Top 100 Players list, landing at No. 73 this year.
The Eagles only had five players make the list according to Dave Zangaro, meaning Carson Wentz and Lane Johnson will not make the list this year.
Cox was No. 28 on the list in 2019 and although his stats were down in the sack department, the Eagles star was still just as dominant. Pro Football Focus ranked Cox as the fifth-best interior lineman in 2019 and only Aaron Donald has generated more quarterback pressures than the 151 Cox has generated over the past two years.
In what was deemed a down year, Cox registered four sacks, 42 hurries, and ten additional hits quarterback and his 89.5 overall grade from PFF was the highest for a defender in the NFC East.
