The Facts:
Following up on a
previous item. ... Sometime in the past year, the Eagles offered McCoy a contract that would have paid him just $6 million per season, the Philadelphia Daily News reported Saturday.

That would be a comparatively low-paying contract for a running back who finished the 2011 season with 1,309 rushing yards and 17 touchdowns. Arian Foster, who ran for 1,224 yards and 10 touchdowns in 2012, recently signed a five-year, $43.5 million deal to stay with the Texans (at an average of $8.7 million per year) and the franchise-tag value for running backs this season is around $7.7 million. McCoy will make $600,000 in the final year of his current contract. The team is said to be interested in working out a long-term deal before the season -- if the price is right.
