The Philadelphia Eagles struck gold with veteran running back LeGarrette Blount this past season. The 31-year-old running back signed on with the Eagles as they were already kicking off the first set of offseason workouts. When he couldn’t reach an agreement with his former team, the New England Patriots. Blount decided that he was better off moving on from the 2016 Super Bowl Champions.
Although the football world was skeptical of the move. The Eagles eventually found out that they had something special with Blount. Not exactly because of his on-field contributions.
