There were a lot of positives from running back Wendell Smallwood's rookie season.
He gained 312 yards on the ground playing in just 16 percent of the team's offensive snaps as the No. 3 back behind Ryan Mathews and Darren Sproles.
Two of his best performances came in signature wins for the Eagles. In the blowout win over the Steelers to cap off a perfect September, Smallwood had a season-best 79 rushing yards and his first NFL touchdown. He gained 70 ground yards on 13 carries (5.4 yards per carry) in the come-from-behind win over the eventual NFC champion Atlanta Falcons.
