The Saints chose not not to match the offer sheet running back Mike Bell signed with the Philadelphia Eagles, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Bell came to New Orleans with his career on life support, but wound up leading the Super Bowl champions in carries during the regular season. His role rapidly diminished in the playoffs, getting only two carries in the Saints' final two wins.

The Eagles will pay Bell $1.7 million, assuming he makes the team. $500,000 is guaranteed, which was enough to scare the Saints off. In Bell and fullback Leonard Weaver, the Eagles have a pair of steady options for short-yardage situations.

LeSean McCoy is expected to start at running back.
