1. Is Clement’s career now on life support?

Clement’s second season was the total opposite of his first and ended with him being placed on the IR (injured reserve) after Week 14 due to a knee injury. That was December 11th of 2018.

All we’ve heard and seen since then were his struggles to make the active roster in 2019, his demotion to being the fourth running back on a depth chart that only has four running backs on it, and the decision to put him on special teams. He’s been nonexistent in the Eagles offense in the first two games.

Is his time in Philly coming to an end? Like it or not, you may start hearing words like ‘injury prone’. All of these rumors that always seem to pop up about Philly pursuing this guy or that guy aren’t rumors for no reason.
