The Denver Broncos sent running back J.J. Arrington to the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for linebacker Joe Mays or a 2012 conditional draft pick, it was announced Friday night.
Arrington is coming off microfracture surgery that forced him to miss all of last season. Before joining the Broncos -- with whom he never played a down -- Arrington spent four years with the Arizona Cardinals, rushing for 654 yards and three touchdowns.
Arrington still has to pass a physical, according to the *Philadelphia Daily News*. If the running back fails to make the team, the Eagles will get a sixth-round pick in 2012.
Mays is entering his third season, having played in 13 games and made only one start in Philadelphia.
