Eagles Report To Sign Former Dallas RB
Reported originally by Chris Tomasson, the Eagles reported to sign a former running back for the Dallas Cowboys. Eagles start their training camp officially on Tuesday. Many Eagles fans still question if they’ll resign RB Jordan Howard. The Eagles backfield is full of potential as they have already signed post draft pickup Kennedy Brooks from Oklahoma. It’s likely the Eagles will sign former Cowboys RB Jaquan Hardy.
The #Vikings, who have one roster spot open, looked into bringing in RB JaQuan Hardy for a workout but a source said he's going to sign with the Philadelphia Eagles. Hardy had four carries for 29 yards as a Dallas Cowboys rookie last season before being waived earlier this month.

Additional Depth
The Eagles are planning to take a chance and add more rookie depth to their backfield with Jaquan Hardy. He played his rookie season with the Dallas Cowboys posting 4 carries for 29 yards. He comes from Tiffin University in Ohio where he excelled totaling 501 receptions for 3207 yards and 28 rushing touchdowns. Jaquan is fast and agile and could prove himself on the Eagles depth cart. He missed the entirety of his 2018 season in Tiffin with a torn meniscus which had raised some doubts about his longitivtiy staying healthy.
The Eagles already have a growing backfield with Kenneth Gainwell and Boston Scott entering their second and third seasons respectively. Not to mention Miles Sanders is ready to have a monster bounce back year. Kennedy Brooks is ready to display his talents heading into training camp and into the preseason. His addition (if signed) will most likely be a battle for a RB4-5 position with Jason Huntley on the practice squad. Eagles reported to sign former the former Dallas RB while RB Jordan Howard remains unsigned.
