The Philadelphia Eagles have running back Tevin Coleman on their radar heading into free agency, according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo.
Coleman, who spent the last four seasons with the Atlanta Falcons, will be one of the top running backs available when the market opens March 13.
The Eagles' ground game struggled last season, particularly after losing Jay Ajayi to a knee injury in Week 5. Josh Adams led the club in rushing with 511 yards and three touchdowns.
Coleman's role in Atlanta expanded last year in the absence of injured starter Devonta Freeman. The 25-year-old averaged 4.8 yards per carry and finished the campaign with 800 yards and five scores on the ground.
