Fletcher Cox: A Brief Biography

Fletcher Cox: A Brief Biography

When we talk about some of the best defensive tackles in the game, it always includes the likes of Fletcher Cox. Cox is a six-time pro bowler and the defensive tackle for the Eagles. Anyone who knows football knows that Philadelphia has some of the best defenses in the NFL and Cox plays a huge part in keeping up that reputation.

It has been 11 years since Cox entered the league and the biggest achievement of his career was winning the Super Bowl. He has only played for the Eagles his entire career and has never changed teams.

Being picked as the 12th overall pick in the 2012 draft, Cox was already a defensive force while playing for Mississippi State. The success on the defensive end of the field transferred while entering the NFL.

Another one of Cox’s biggest talents is simply being available for games. Last season he played all 17 games in the regular season. His statistics weren't exactly the best but it was decent. He posted 43 tackles, 7 sacks, and 1 forced fumble. When we look into the advanced stats, his PFF grade was ranked as 32nd best amongst defensive tackles.

This season, the Eagles and the 49ers are the only teams that have not yet been beaten. While we know the 49ers arguably have the best offense in the league, we cannot count out the defensive ability of the Eagles. Part of the defensive dominance from the Eagles is because of Cox.

Fletcher Cox’s Early Life

Born in 1990, December 30th, Fletcher Cox’s life revolved around his mother and his grandmother. The two ladies in the family helped look after Cox and his elder brother, Shaddrick Cox. When we talk about Cox’s father, he was never present in the family while growing up. The reason why is unknown.

Growing up in a tough neighborhood like Yazoo City, Mississippi, Cox saw a lot of violence and drug users around. He has credited his mother, and his grandmother for keeping him straight and away from all the dangers around.

Cox played multiple sports growing up, mainly football, and basketball, and also ran track. Despite all the talent in other sports, his loyalty and interest peaked with football. Being a highly-rated football recruit, he chose to take his talents to Mississippi State University for his college years.

Defense is a talent that not many possess. So when a highly touted player like Fox entered the draft, his value was off the charts. He went 12th overall to the Philadelphia Eagles and has won two championships since. As the common saying goes “Defense wins championships,” it held true with the Eagles. They are arguably the best defensive team in the league to storm through two championships.

Fletcher Cox’s Contract

After a six-year $103 million deal that Cox had previously signed, now he currently signed with the Eagles on a one-year $10 million deal. It was immediately after the previous season ended, in March 2023. The contract is fully guaranteed and has a cap hit of $5.7 million.

His previous contract which he had signed with the Eagles in 2016 was worth $103 million and included $63 million in guaranteed money. During that time, it had made Cox the highest-paid defensive tackle ever.

The contract he signed this year was a no-brainer as without his services, the Eagles may not have been the same. With Cox back in the lineup, the Eagles look forward to finishing what they started last season after losing to the Chiefs in the finals.
