Jordan Howard faces a race against time upon return to Eagles backfield

It’s been six games since we’ve seen Jordan Howard carry the ball for the Philadelphia Eagles. The former Chicago Bear could be set to return this week in a key week-17 clash against the Giants, but a lot has changed since he picked up a stinger against the team that drafted him.

The Eagles drafted Miles Sanders in the second-round of this year’s draft with the intent of finding the next ‘LeSean McCoy’. Sanders was a breath of fresh air to the offense and after a few weeks of transition, he began to find his feet as a dynamic threat who just so happened to be the perfect complement to Jordan Howard’s aggressive running style.
