Could the Eagles reunite with LeSean McCoy? The club has “some interest” in trading for the Bills running back, Ian Rapoport of NFL.com tweets.

The Eagles recently lost starter Jay Ajayi for the season, leaving them thin in the backfield. For now, Corey Clement and Wendell Smallwood figure to pick up the slack, but McCoy would give the Eagles a proven starter at running back.
Of course, there are a lot of external factors to consider when it comes to McCoy. McCoy’s ex-girlfriend, Delicia Cordon, claims that he ordered the the July home invasion that left her battered and recently accused him of physical abuse. The 30-year-old Harrisburg, PA native vehemently denies all of the accusations, but a league suspension remains possible.
Beyond that, the Eagles would have to assume McCoy’s contract, which calls for a $8.95MM cap number this year and a $9.05MM figure in 2019. Releasing McCoy before the start of next season would result in $2.625MM in dead money, and that’s not chump change for a club that is tight against the salary cap limit. Still, McCoy would require less of a financial commitment than Le’Veon Bell, and it’s possible that McCoy would be willing to restructure his deal in order to facilitate a return to Philadelphia.
McCoy played his best football while flying with the Eagles, including the 2013 season in which he led the league with 1,607 yards. He’s also been effective in the second half of his career in Buffalo, averaging 4.5 yards per tote since 2015.
David Johnson? Seems like a better option.
Yeah well Arizona isn’t trading him so..
Maybe they can trade Jordan Matthews for him? Anyway, I don’t think Philly wants him back, they moved on from him for a reason and his recent situation is exactly what they wanted to rid themselves of; no matter how many years he’s been a “professional” he’s young and immature.
Chip Kelly moved on from him you mean.
It was more Chip Kelly’s ego that sent McCoy out of Philly. We all saw how well his tenure was with the Eagles. McCoy can give the running game a major boost
Easy to blame it on Chip, but guys like McCoy and D-Jax wrote their tickets out of town because they don’t carry themselves right.
Eagle fans once threw snowballs at Santa Claus. I guess he didn’t carry himself right either.
That was a drunk fan dressed up as Santa. That same ole joke gets old.
You mean it wasn’t the REAL Santa ? Shocking !
probably best to stay clear of him.
McCoy for Wisniewski and a conditional 3rd rounder in case he gets suspended?
Bills need a guard
