Bon was instrumental in the Super Bowl 59 championship win before the Eagles rewarded him with a three-year, $51 million deal, with $34 million guaranteed, for an average annual salary of $17 million, making him the fourth-highest-paid linebacker in the NFL, behind Baltimore Ravens Roquan Smith ($20 million), San Francisco 49ers Fred Warner ($19.045 million) and Chicago Bears Tremaine Edmonds ($18 million). 

The Eagles signed Bon to a one-year, $3.5 million deal, which ended with the New Orleans Saints in free agency last year. Under Eagles wide receivers coach Vic Fangio, the 28-year-old linebacker is one of the best value players in the league.

Bon has made 151 total tackles, 11 forced fumbles, 5 forced fumbles, 4 pass breakups, 1 interception and 3.5 sacks. ( kuiper999 )
