You can say 11th in 2024, but he was closer to being paid 15th than he was to being paid 10th. By Week 1 of the season, he's going to be out of the top-15 and making ~65% of the highest paid player at his position.
So? You are arguing over semantics! The Eagles have two player being paid at the top 15 players at the same position.
