Daily News | Eagles agree to terms with free-agent running back Rashaad Penny
have agreed to terms with free agent running back Rashaad Penny, according to league sources confirming an NFL Network report.
The Seattle Seahawks selected Penny in the first round of the 2018 NFL draft, but injuries and inconsistency kept him from realizing his potential.Eagles can win with an expensive Jalen Hurts, but free agent frustration is their new normFor stretches of his career, Penny has flashed the potential that he showed at San Diego State. He finished the 2021 season with three straight games rushing for more than 100 yards and scored four touchdowns during that stretch.
Penny’s running style is best defined by his ability to run through arm tackles and break off explosive runs with home-run speed. The 5-foot-11, 220-pound back ran a 4.46-second 40-yard dash at the scouting combine in 2018 and averaged an impressive 4.23 average yards after contact last season, according to Pro Football Focus. He also led the NFL in average yards after contact in 2021, according to PFF.
Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said Penny would make a full recovery from the leg injury, which required surgery.
