As far as summer indiscretions go, Eagles backup RB Dion Lewis’ arrest for pulling a hotel fire alarm failed to really register.

The Eagles aren't going to make a huge deal out of it. Head coach Andy Reid will likely chastise the second-year running back, but Lewis should remain No. 2 on the depth chart when full squad practices start Thursday.

Fantasy Impact:

Unless the Birds sign a veteran backup, the only other options behind Lewis are 7th round pick Bryce Brown and Chris Polk, another rookie. Lewis wasn't a bad blocker at times last year and Brown isn't much of a blocker at all, but did look impressive otherwise in OTAs. An RB's blocking ability is key in the Eagles offense.

Eagles coach Andy Reid has already said that RB LeSean McCoy’s workload will be reduced this year, which means more playing time for the backup.

Although Chris Polk could work his way into the competition, we’re guessing ultimately Bryce Brown and Dion Lewis will be the prime candidates for the No. 2 tailback job.

Lewis didn’t play much as a rookie -- 4.4 average on 23 carries -- but when he did get the ball he was productive. Brown, the rookie seventh-round pick, has an edge in size and is a better receiver. Lewis blocked surprisingly well last year, but Brown, with his speed, size and receiving ability, will get every opportunity to win the No. 2 job.

Dion Lewis, a backup running back for the Philadelphia Eagles was arrested over the weekend on felony charges after police said he and his older brother nearly knocked a downtown hotel's glass doors off their hinges and pulled a fire alarm. Word of the pre-dawn incident surfaced Monday as Lewis was scheduled to appear at the Troy Boys and Girls Club on Tuesday and speak with summer campers.

The incident occurred at 4:40 a.m. at the Hampton Inn on Chapel Street, when Lewis and his brother, Lamar, were stuck outside behind the locked clear glass door leading to the hotel's lobby, said Officer Steve Smith, a police spokesman. Lewis and his brother were both drunk, police said, and began to strike the doors, hitting them "with such force as to rock them and nearly break them from their hinges," according to court documents.

Todd Reichelt, general manager for the Hampton Inn, said the doors to the hotel are locked after midnight to anyone who does not have a key.

Either Dion or Lamar Lewis then pulled the hotel's fire alarm, waking dozens of patrons and prompting emergency crews to visit the hotel, police said. Both brothers were charged with falsely reporting a fire, a felony, and misdemeanor reckless endangerment.
