Eagles | Wendell Smallwood hopeful for Week 7
Tue, 17 Oct 2017 09:37:12 -0700
Philadelphia Eagles RB1 Wendell Smallwood (knee) told reporters he expects to play in Week 7 against the Washington Redskins after participating in practice Tuesday, Oct. 17.
The Eagles have been getting by fine without Smallwood for the last two weeks, but he was starting to come on in the Darren Sproles role of this offense prior to going down. Assuming he is able to return this week, owners should view him as a capable flex option in a game where his abilities as a receiver may be needed more than usual.
