According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Marcus Mariota has signed a one-year contract with the Philadelphia Eagles. Mariota’s deal is for one year and worth $5 million, with potential bonuses of up to $8 million.
Mariota played 13 games for the Falcons in 2022, throwing for 2,219 yards, 15 TD, and 9 INT. He was replaced by rookie Desmond Ridder at the end of the season and ultimately let go. The former Falcon is expected to become the backup quarterback to Jalen Hurts.
The Eagles agreed to terms with free agent Rashaad Penny and veteran Boston Scott, according to league sources. Penny agreed to a one-year deal with a $1.35 million base salary, $600,000 guaranteed, and a max value of $2.1 million, while Scott will make roughly $2 million on a one-year contract, according to NFL Network.
Penny has shown flashes of elite upside, albeit in short spurts, with two significant injuries. In the 2022 season, Penny played five games before suffering a season-ending leg injury, logging 57 carries for 346 yards and two touchdowns.

Eagles Vs. Chiefs Betting Insights
Why The Chiefs Can Cover The Spread
The Eagles are being priced akin to an elite defense, the likes of which we’ve seen with the Legion of Boom and the No-Fly Zone. But it’s not at all clear they have that kind of quality considering the competition level they have faced this year. The best quarterback they have faced is…Dak Prescott? What’s left of Aaron Rodgers? This has been a startlingly easy schedule.
And one thing we know for sure is the Chiefs have a superb offense. It’s been at the top of the league for multiple years and completely scorched this same defense in 2021, albeit with Tyreek Hill leading the way (186 yards). If the Chiefs offense executes and Patrick Mahomes’ ankle doesn’t collapse, this will be a huge challenge for this defense.
Why The Eagles Can Cover The Spread
The Eagles have the rushing attack to put enormous pressure on a KC defense that has been quite soft against the run at times, albeit mostly earlier in the season. You won’t find a better unit than this offensive line. And on the other side of the ball, we’ve already seen one pass rush completely overpower the Chiefs and render Mahomes helpless in the Super Bowl. Repeat that trick and, regardless of what happens on offense, the Eagles will be well on their way to another title.
Reasons To Bet The Over
The last time the Eagles faced a passing offense with a pulse, they gave up 40 points to Dallas. Anything similar from the Chiefs and this game is going to rocket over, in all likelihood. The Chiefs’ strengths on offense match up well with Philly’s vulnerabilities on defense, and the same can be said on the other side of the ball. Thus, we have a pretty high total on our hands, but surpassing it doesn’t seem that crazy with these units.
Reasons To Bet The Under
The primary worry for points being scored here probably revolves around the health of both quarterbacks. Mahomes’ well-documented ankle injury clearly limited him against the Bengals even if he still had a pretty big game. Less discussed but perhaps even more impactful has been the lingering Jalen Hurts shoulder injury.

Eagles Vs. Chiefs Matchups To Watch For
Chiefs Offensive Line Vs. Eagles Pass Rush
Haason Reddick has been wrecking everything in sight in the playoffs. That has made him a popular dark horse for Super Bowl MVP. However, the Chiefs own a very solid offensive line and a QB who seems to have an eerily perfect sense of the pass rush. The operative matchup figures to come mostly with whoever is matched up with RT Andrew Wylie, the unquestioned weak link on the KC line. Disrupting Mahomes is a must for the Eagles. If the Chiefs keep him clean, they could roll on that side of the ball.
Eagles Coverage Vs. Travis Kelce
The Chiefs’ wide receivers suffered a number of minor injuries against the Bengals. While everyone besides Mecole Hardman is expected to go, if players like JuJu Smith-Schuster and Kadarius Toney aren’t 100%, it puts even more pressure than usual on Travis Kelce to produce. The Eagles have had two weeks to figure out a way to do what basically nobody has done in almost a decade – slow Kelce down. Despite being the clear focus of opposing defenses, he was far and away the most productive TE in football this season. Failure to contain Kelce likely spells doom, but the Eagles have been solid against TEs, with a No. 6 ranking per Football Outsiders.
Chiefs DBs Vs. AJ Brown
Hurts has not seemed able to attack downfield since coming back from a shoulder injury. Of his two top receivers, AJ Brown, does far more damage in the short-to-intermediate area, so he’d be the guy the Chiefs need to key on. Only one team performed worse against WR1s than the Chiefs this season, but the secondary has performed quite a bit better in the playoffs and late in the season. Trent McDuffie’s return from injury has been a big part of that, but the rookie certainly has a huge challenge on his hands here against the All-Pro candidate.
Final Thoughts
For a team that won 14 regular season games and advanced to the Super Bowl, the Eagles have a surprising amount of question marks due to a few factors. They got an incredibly easy path to the Super Bowl, facing an overmatched Giants team and a snakebitten San Francisco offense. And their schedule overall was just really soft.
Additionally, Jalen Hurts has not looked nearly as effective since returning from a shoulder injury. Is that because he’s physically compromised or because the team hasn’t had need of him? If the former, could he have gotten up to par in the past two weeks?
The fact the market steamed the Eagles immediately upon open suggests influential bettors are seeing that as the value side. However, given that the same market influencers rated the Chiefs as the stronger team all season, bettors have an interesting puzzle to solve. Have the Eagles or Chiefs done anything in the past month to convince you that something about them has materially changed? If you answer no, you should be looking to bet the Chiefs.
Ultimately, both sides have strong points that could prove key to making the difference here. That makes it easy to construct an argument either way.
Whatever you do, be sure to do due diligence on scanning through the hundreds of props available. Whatever your opinion on the game, you’ll surely find multiple ways to back it up in markets that offer more value than the major ones of side and total.
Best of luck betting on Eagles vs. Chiefs odds.
