Report: Eagles waiving Jay Ajayi with Jordan Howard set to return

The Philadelphia Eagles are waiving Jay Ajayi now that Jordan Howard is FINALLY ready to return from his shoulder injury, according to a report from NFL insider Adam Schefter.

The Eagles originally re-signed Ajayi back in mid-November after Howard got hurt and Darren Sproles suffered a season-ending injury. He was expected to be the team’s No. 2 running back behind Miles Sanders and that’s the role he played at one point before it became painfully clear he was ineffective. Ajayi’s 10 carries went for a mere 30 yards.
