🦅👀 Do Eagles fans want to see Ezekiel Elliott in green? flyeaglesfly NBCSPhilly
The Eagles did allow Pro Bowl running back Miles Sanders to leave via free agency – he signed a four-year deal with the Panthers – but they signed Rashaad Penny and re-signed Boston Scott and they still have Kenny Gainwell and promising Trey Sermon, a 49ers 3rd-round pick just two years ago, on the roster, as well as former Oklahoma star Kennedy Brooks.
After averaging 1,756 scrimmage yards and 4.6 yards per carry making three Pro Bowls from 2016 through 2019, Elliott has averaged 1,191 scrimmage yards per season and 4.0 yards per carry the last three years. He averaged a career-low 3.8 this past year and also had career lows with 876 rushing yards and 95 receiving yards.
And nobody has more wear and tear than Elliott. His 1,881 carries are 131 more than any other back since he entered the league in 2016, and his 2,186 touches are 309 more than anybody else. Former Cowboys have historically never worked out for the Eagles – Orlando Scandrick, Miles Austin, Herschel Walker, Chris Boniol, Felix Jones, DeMarco Murray, Darrin Smith, Kelvin Martin and George Hegamin, to name a few.
