The Eagles conducted a workout for running back Felix Jones on Tuesday, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported.

Jones, who turns 26 on Wednesday, 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 (5-10, 215) could appeal to the Eagles as 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 Bengals also worked out Jones earlier in the offseason but have since re-signed Bernard Scott and drafted Giovani Bernard and Rex Burkhead.
