Coach Vic Fangio says Baun will sport the green dot for the Eagles' defense during the 2026 season, EJ Smith of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Nakobe Dean was the primary on-field playcaller for the Eagles' defense in 2025, an honor that now belongs to Baun. The 2024 first-team All-Pro and 2025 Pro Bowler was ranked No. 45 on the NFL's Top 100 players of 2026 and will carry the responsibility associated with that as the Eagles attempt to reach a third Super Bowl in five years.
