According to a report by Ian Rapoport at NFL Network, the Eagles have agreed to terms with Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny.
Penny was a first-round draft pick by Seattle in the 2018 draft. His first several seasons were spent battling injury issues. However, down the stretch of the 2021 campaign he suddenly developed into one of the league’s most consistently explosive rushers. In the end he tied Josh Allen for the league lead in average yards per carry that season (6.3). Penny looked every bit as good early on in 2022 but an ankle injury in Week 5 ended his season early.
All together, Penny has appeared in 42 pro games, totaling 1,918 rushing yards and 13 touchdowns. When healthy Philadelphia will be getting a significant upgrade to their running back room.
Moving forward, Seattle’s running back room will now be led by 2022 second-round pick Ken Walker, who posted over 1,000 yards and nine touchdowns in just 11 starts.
