What Ajayi’s contract means for Jordan Howard’s future with the Eagles

All seems to be going swimmingly so far for Jordan Howard’s tenure in Philadelphia. Minus an unfortunate injury that caused him to miss last Sunday’s matchup against the Patriots, Howard has been a factor week in and week out. As advertised, he’s been a physical presence on an offense that has needed a shot in the arm and has made a fantastic yin to rookie Miles Sanders’ yang. He is currently the team’s leading rusher and has maintained a steady 4.4 yards per rush. It’s no wonder that mounting cries for the Eagles to re-sign the fourth-year back have picked up steam over the last few weeks.
