The Arizona Cardinals acquire RB Charles Scott from the Eagles
The Cardinals have acquired rookie 6th round pick (RB) Charles Scott from the Eagles for rookie 6th round pick (CB) Jorrick Calvin. Scott played in 3 pre-season games for the Eagles and he carried the ball 1 time for 2 yards and he also caught 1 pass for 0 yards. Scott is a power running back at 5′11″, 231 pounds. He runs a 4.6 40 so he’s not much of a threat to break off many big runs but he is a bully between the tackles. Scott played in 9 games (all starts) for LSU last season in which he carried the ball 116 times for 542 yards (4.7 ypc) with 4 TD runs and he also caught 8 passes for 54 yards (6.8 avg) with 1 TD grab. He played in 43 games (23 starts) in his four years at LSU and he carried the ball 424 times for 2,317 yards (5.5 ypc) with 32 TD runs. Scott also caught 31 passes for 260 yards (8.4 avg) with 3 TD grabs in his career at LSU. The Cardinals needed a running back to back up Tim Hightower and Beanie Wells so Scott will have a chance to make the team. Jorrick Calvin played in 3 pre-season games for the Cardinals in which he made 5 tackles.
