Corey Clement was a surprising name to the Philadelphia Eagles injury report after suffering a quad injury during Friday's practice. Clement is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Indianapolis Colts, but is expected to play (per ESPN's Tim McManus).

The Eagles won't have Jay Ajayi and Darren Sproles for Sunday's game, as both were ruled out, so Clement playing is excellent news. Clement is expected to be the Eagles featured back on Sunday, after having played just 46 of the team's 151 offensive snaps (30.46 percent) through two games, which is a surprising number for a dynamic back. Clement has 11 carries for 56 yards (5.1 yards per carry) through two games and has five catches for 55 yards.

Clement is also expected to return kicks and punts in Sproles' absence, but that may change based on how is quad is feeling. Shelton Gibson is listed as the first-team kick returner on the depth chart while Nelson Agholor is listed as the third-team punt returner (Clement is on the second team at both positions)

"You've got to be careful. You've got to be smart there," said Eagles head coach Doug Pederson. "You can't tax him one way or the other because he's a versatile and he's a very valuable piece of what we're trying to do on special teams and on offense. There's a balance there, and we've got to make sure that we have the right combination of plays for him."

With Ajayi and Sproles out, expect to see a lot of Wendell Smallwood and Josh Adams in the running back-by-committee. The Eagles called up Adams from the practice squad this week, anticipating one or both of Ajayi and Sproles would be out.

"We'll be smart with him having a chance to possibly play in this game and see where he is at the end of the week," Pederson said. "Duce (Staley) does a great job of sort of managing those running backs and the amount of runs and who gets what run. We have all the confidence in Josh, and when he gets an opportunity he's going to do well."

An undrafted free agent out of Notre Dame, Adams averaged 5.2 yards per carry after contact, the highest figure in his draft class by almost a full yard (per Pro Football Focus). He broke 44 tackles on the ground and another one as a receiver to give him an elusive rating of 116.5, the second-best figure in the draft class. yet, he went undrafted because of his foot injury.

Adams has runs of at least 74 yards in every season of his college career, and when he gets into open space he can be tough to catch with excellent long speed. He had 206 carries for 1,431 yards (1,019 after contact) last season for the Fighting Irish, averaging 7.0 yards per carry.

Smallwood has seven carries for 28 yards and one catch for four yards through two games.
