The Philadelphia Eagles have conducted a workout for former Dallas Cowboys running back Felix Jones on Tuesday at the NovaCare Complex, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Jones,26, spent the last five seasons with the Cowboys, rushing for 2,728 yards and 11 touchdowns on 569 carries (4.8 ypc) and hauling in 127 receptions for 1,062 yards (8.4 ypr) and 11 scores. Jones returned a kick 98 yards for a score against the Eagles when he was a rookie.

Jones appeal to the Eagles is simple, he can add depth behind LeSean McCoy and Bryce Brown. The Eagles dealt reserve Dion Lewis to Cleveland earlier in the offseason and did not draft a back.

The Eagles also have running back Chris Polk on their roster, but both Pulk and Brown have little experience in the NFL. Brown was impressive in his first two starts for the injured McCoy last season, but he fumbled too much.

Polk did not register a carry. He battled a foot injury for much of the season, but coach Chip Kelly has spoken highly of Polk this offseason.

Jones has not garnered much attention during this free agency period, but he's also worked out with the Cincinnati Bengals as well.
