This offseason, the Philadelphia Eagles needed to make a few upgrades on both sides of the ball. However, the position that needed the most re-building was running back. The Eagles were rumored to be in the mix for almost every big-name free agent available. Le’Veon Bell, Tevin Coleman, etc. As we know, though, they went in a different direction.
Instead, the Eagles made a trade with the Chicago Bears in order to acquire veteran running back, Jordan Howard. Now Howard has proven before that he can take a majority of the carries on by himself, but that’s not how the Eagles roll.
