The Philadelphia Eagles were able to hijack social media from the Phillies opening day and Sixers primetime matchup, with the news that the team had acquired running back Jordan Howard, from the Chicago Bears. Twitter was abuzz with fan and player reaction alike after the Eagles traded for the bruising and dynamic tailback.

Howard and Elliott are the only RBs with 900+ rushing yards in each of the last three seasons.
