Corey Clement the Preferred Eagles Option for Week 6
6 years agoPhiladelphia Eagles running back Corey Clement was deemed "100 percent, good to go" for Week 6 by coach Doug Pederson. With Jay Ajayi (torn ACL) out for the season, Clement and Wendell Smallwood will be splitting backfield work for the Eagles. Despite coming off a quad injury, Clement is the preferred fantasy option this week and going forward because of his receiving ability and red zone usage. Opposing running backs have accounted for 80 percent of the touchdowns scored against the Giants so far this season, so Clement has as good a chance to score this week as any. He can be fired up as a low-end RB2 for Thursday Night Football.
