Recent Game Summaries

2018 Week 14 vs DAL (1 / 2 / 0 rush, 3 / 3 / 34 / 1 rec)

Sproles saw four touches for the second week in a row since his return from injury. Sproles saw the most snaps of Eagles running backs and Corey Clement's in-game knee injury only fueled Sproles' opportunity as Philadelphia trailed much of the game. Sproles was stuffed on two of his touches, but flashed balance, burst, and agility on his two highlight contributions. Sproles converted a fourth down swing route reception into field goal range, beating the stingy linebacker Leighton Vander Esch. Later, Sproles ran through a tackle attempt on a goal line receiving touchdown. Sproles already has two touchdowns on eight touchdowns since his return from injury and a poised to be a critical piece to the Eagles offense if they are to earn a playoff spot in the coming weeks.

2018 Week 13 vs WAS (4 / 22 / 1 rush, 0 / 0 / 0 / 0 rec)

Sproles made this season debut against Washington, playing select snaps, including in the red zone. Sproles broke his notable carry for a red zone touchdown, bursting through a well-blocked hole and breaking tackle for the score. Sproles has been a receiving maven in his career but did not see a target in his first game back as Corey Clement was the primary pass-catcher of the backfield.

2018 Week 1 vs ATL (5 / 10 / 0 rush, 7 / 4 / 22 / 0 rec)

Sproles' season debut at 35 years old was an impressive one with a strong share of the snaps in the first half. Jay Ajayi shifted to prominence in the second half, but Sproles saw primary snaps, plus the two-minute drill over the opening 30 minutes. Sproles had a touchdown opportunity with a goal line toss, but was tackled at the one-yard-line. Sproles also broke a tackle on a third down reception for a key conversion in the closing minutes. The Eagles ultimately scored the game-winning touchdown on the drive. Sproles was an uncharacteristic disappointment in the passing game with a drop and being covered easily on multiple short routes.
