Steelers trade for Jones

Pittsburgh Steelers have completed a trade deal with Philadelphia Eagles for running back Felix Jones.

The move, which was sealed on Friday, also sees linebacker Adrian Robinson move to Chip Kelly's side.

The Steelers were in need of depth at running back after losing Le'Veon Bell to injury, leaving with them with few other options.

Jones is a former first-round pick after he was selected 22nd overall in the 2008 Draft by Dallas Cowboys. He has run for 2,728 yards in his five years in the NFL.
