We’ve known Donnel Pumphrey and Boston Scott won’t make this team for a while, but a long offseason has forced the Philadelphia Eagles to make some difficult decisions. Will the Eagles keep five running backs? If so, who will win that fifth spot? Is there any chance the Eagles would consider cutting Darren Sproles? How much would Wendell Smallwood have to show to take his roster spot?
Pumphrey may have a tiny lead over Scott so far this pre-season, but the value of both is really limited to what we know they may be capable of on special teams.
