Jordan Howard

RB Jordan Howard’s one-year deal with the Eagles includes no guaranteed money.

Fantasy Impact

Howard re-signed a one-year deal with the Eagles during the offseason. His contract includes no guaranteed money and is considered a veteran salary benefit deal. “Honestly, my market was just pretty dry,” Howard said earlier this week. “I was at the point I was having thoughts I might be done because teams weren’t really calling.” Howard’s stock has drastically declined after signing a two-year, $9.75 million contract with the Dolphins in 2020, including $4.75 million guaranteed. The 26-year-old rushed for 60 yards on 35 attempts and four touchdowns across seven games for the Dolphins/Eagles last season. “I still feel like I have a lot left,” he said. “Past two years, I got the injury that put me out for a lot, last year I didn’t really play, so I feel like I have a lot left in the tank.” Howard has little to no fantasy value in 2021 and there are no guarantees that he makes the Eagles’ Week 1 roster.

Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Jordan Howard and the Eagles have agreed on a one-year deal.

Fantasy Impact

Howard was used in a minimal role in 2020. He only carried the football seven times for 27 yards and no touchdowns. He is merely a depth-piece at the RB position. He has no fantasy value unless Miles Sanders or Boston Scott go down with injury.

Eagles running back Jordan Howard rushed four times for 19 yards in Sunday's loss to the Green Bay Packers.

Fantasy Impact

The Eagles have not been running the ball much in 2020, and starting running back Miles Sanders only received 10 carries on Sunday. But Howard looked at home in Philadelphia in limited snaps, averaging 4.8 yards per carry thanks to a long run of 11 yards.

The Philadelphia Eagles have elevated RB Jordan Howard from the practice squad to the active roster for Week 13 against the Packers.

Fantasy Impact

Howard spent the earlier part of the season as the goal-line back for the Dolphins before his release. Now he’s back with the Eagles and is likely to take on a similar role as a goal-to-go type back. You’re likely still starting Miles Sanders in most situations, but Howard’s presence on the active roster certainly isn’t great for Sanders and his inability to find the end zone.

The Eagles signed RB Jordan Howard to their practice squad.

Fantasy Impact

Howard had some success in 10 games with the Eagles in 2019, but he isn't expected to serve as anything more than RB depth this time around. Howard appeared in five games for the Dolphins earlier this year, running 28 times for a whopping 33 yards. He isn't a recommended add for fantasy purposes.
