Eagles will consider signing Jamaal Charles
The Philadelphia Eagles will "evaluate" adding free agent running back Jamaal Charles, head coach Doug Pederson confirmed.
"I think he's a tremendous running back," Pederson said. "We'll grade him just like we do every free agent and every person that's released and see where he could fit into our offense." While the coach tried to temper the comments at the end, it makes a lot of sense for the Eagles to kick the tires on Charles if he is healthy.
The Eagles' backfield accrued 0.01 Rushing Net Expected Points (NEP) per attempt this season, the 16th-best rate in the league. Charles has attempted just 83 rushing attempts over the last two years, but has earned 0.08 Rushing NEP per carry over that span of time.
