Arnold Ebiketie Trade Cancelled by Bengals Over Compensatory Pick Math

The Philadelphia Eagles' agreed-upon trade sending edge rusher Arnold Ebiketie to the Cincinnati Bengals for a sixth-round pick fell through before the deadline. Cincinnati backed out after realizing acquiring Ebiketie would void a projected 2027 third-round compensatory pick earned from Trey Hendrickson's departure. Future roster developments involving former Bengals guard Cordell Volson could theoretically alter comp pick formulas.
