After a standout season, Philadelphia Eagles’ left tackle Jordan Mailata has been ranked No. 69 in the NFL’s Top 100 Players of 2025. This achievement marks him as the first Eagle to make this year’s list.
Mailata’s journey is remarkable, having been drafted without any prior experience in organized football and evolving into one of the NFL’s top tackles. His performance in 2024 earned him a second-team All-Pro designation and he led the league with a Pro Football Focus offensive grade of 96.9.
The 6-foot-8, 365-pound player played a key role in enabling the Eagles’ rushing offense to set an NFL record with 3,866 yards during regular and postseason games. He also contributed significantly to Saquon Barkley’s achievement of becoming only the ninth player in NFL history to surpass 2,000 rushing yards.
Selected as a seventh-round pick from Australia in 2018, Mailata became a starter by his third season and has maintained that position since then. This year marks his debut on the NFL Top 100 list.
