🦅 Which Eagles backs will run to the front of the pack? flyeaglesfly NBCSPhilly
The Eagles traded for Swift during the draft, sending a 2025 fourth-round pick to the Lions in a deal that also included a seventh-round pick swap this year. It’s a homecoming for Swift, who is a Philly native and was once a star at St. Joseph’s Prep.
In three seasons, Swift has never had more than 617 rushing yards in a year but he has been excellent as a receiver out of the backfield. Over the last three seasons, Swift has 156 catches, ranking him fifth in the NFL among running backs during that span behind Austin Ekeler , Alvin Kamara , Leonard Fournette and Aaron Jones . That’s an element of this Eagles offense that has been missing; perhaps Swift can provide it.
So that begs the question: Which version is the real version of Gainwell? And is all that changed his role? Gainwell spoke this spring about welcoming competition and said he still expects to have a big role despite the additions of Swift and Penny.Of all the running backs on the Eagles’ roster, Penny has been the most productive in his NFL career. The problem has been injuries, all kinds of injuries. He just can’t stay healthy.
