During our landing; about 1-2 miles from the FAF (final approach fix); we were at 2900 ft I noticed a drone flying above us. It was close to us; seemed like 50 ft above. It was hard to tell if it was flying to the opposite direction or just standing. Any way we passed below it. I immediately informed ZZZ tower about it. We continued and landed at the destination.
An air carrier flight crew was on final approach descending past 3;000 feet when they noticed a UAS above them and notified ATC.
