2026 Outlook
Mundt signed with Philadelphia during 2026 free agency and enters his ninth NFL season. The veteran has carved out a unique role as an elite blocker who contributes in multiple dimensions. His new OC Sean Mannion is familiar with Mundt from their Los Angeles Rams days when Mannion was a backup quarterback. Mundt excels as a pass protector and run blocker, making him a valuable presence on the field even when his receiving touches are limited.
