- The trade on camera features Dallas sending pick No. 20 and a 2027 seventh-rounder to the Eagles for Nos. 23, 114 and 137.
- The jump to No. 20 let Philadelphia draft the USC wideout ahead of Pittsburgh at No. 21, and the Steelers pivoted to select tackle Max Iheanachor.
- The Cowboys later used the acquired selections on edge rusher Malachi Lawrence at No. 23, cornerback Devin Moore at No. 114 and edge rusher LT Overton at No. 137.
