Running backs at a glance

September 04, 2010

Here are the Eagles' running backs at a glance:

RB LeSean McCoy, 5-11, 208, Pittsburgh, 2d year

After a nice season in which he set the Eagles rookie rushing record, "Shady" is being called on to replace do-everything back Brian Westbrook. Does he have the legs for 16 games?

RB Mike Bell, 6-0, 225, Arizona, 5th year

On his third team in five years, the Eagles hope Bell can provide a power complement to McCoy - if he can stay healthy.

Story continues below.

FB Leonard Weaver, 6-0, 250, Carson-Newman, 6th year

He is powerful, reliable, steady - and a gentleman to boot.

RB Eldra Buckley, 5-9, 207, Tenn.-Chattanooga, 2d year

This hard-running back makes most of his impact on special teams. He's tough but not a game-breaker.
