According to NFL Insider Jason La Canfora, the Philadelphia Eagles are reportedly interested in trading for Pittsburgh Steelers running back Le’Veon Bell.

Bell, age 26, did not participate in Steelers practice and games the past three weeks, piling up numerous fines from the NFL.
Earlier this offseason, Bell was seeking a $17 million contract which Steelers don’t want to pay.
As of now, Steelers are “actively shopping” for trades involving the Pro Bowl running back.

Personally, I don’t think it’s worth paying a running back $17 million for a one-year rental when the Eagles already have Jay Ajayi, Darren Sproles, and Corey Clement.
