Clement carried the ball four times for 17 yards and caught his lone target for one yard in Sunday's 34-29 defeat of the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
The 10 offensive snaps were the fewest he's played since Week 6 at Carolina, but he saw his usual allotment of between five to seven touches for the fifth straight week. He'll be a risky play Week 16 versus Oakland.

Clement carried the ball six times for 24 yards and caught one of three pass attempts for 28 additional yards in Sunday's defeat of the Rams.
EDGE Analysis
The seven total touches were the rookie's most since Week 9. His 27 snaps came just one shy of his career high, while LeGarrette Blount saw just 15. Nevertheless, the Wisconsin product's role in the Eagles' offense is the least valuable among their running back trio. He is not a recommended option in Week 15 against the Giants.

Clement played 28 snaps on offense in Sunday's 24-10 loss to the Seahawks, gaining seven yards on three carries and catching all three of his targets for 30 yards.
EDGE Analysis
While not exactly known for his receiving skills, the 220-pound undrafted rookie out of Wisconsin got a good chunk of the playing time in obvious passing situations Sunday night. The game context limited LeGarrette Blount to just 14 snaps and eight carries, while Jay Ajayi led the way with 31 snaps and 12 touches (three catches). Clement nonetheless remains the least interesting commodity in Philadelphia's three-headed backfield heading into a Week 14 road game against the Rams. Ajayi is the one with upside, while Blount remains the best bet for goal-line carries and clock-killing work. Clement falls somewhere in between, locked into a decent role that seemingly doesn't offer much room for growth unless one of his backfield mates gets hurt.

Clement gained 27 yards on four carries and 12 yards on one reception in Sunday's 31-3 win over the Bears.
EDGE Analysis
Clement hasn't disappeared from the offense despite the emergence of Jay Ajayi as an effective complement to LeGarrette Blount. The team clearly thinks highly of its rookie back, and it's telling that Clement got each of his five touches prior to garbage time in the fourth quarter. He's essentially stuck in a role as the third part of a three-headed monster, but there's little question the Eagles would have faith in Clement if injuries higher up the depth chart pushed him into a larger role. He'll take aim at a shaky Rams run defense on the road in Week 13.

Clement rushed six times for 50 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 37-9 defeat of the Cowboys. He also converted a two-point attempt.
EDGE Analysis
The undrafted rookie capped off the first drive of the second half with an 11-yard run up the middle for a score that put the Eagles up for good. Despite seeing half the touches that he did in Week 9, Clement managed to reach 50 yards in his third consecutive game. His emergence, alongside Jay Ajayi's arrival, certainly makes the Philadelphia backfield a three-headed monster as they head into a Week 12 matchup at Chicago.

Clement ran for 51 yards and two touchdowns on 12 carries and added another score on a 15-yard reception in Sunday's 51-23 win over the Broncos.
EDGE Analysis
The blowout nature of the contest probably played a major factor, but Clement ended up playing 28 of the Eagles' 69 offensive snaps to outpace the team's other four active running backs. Clement was able to capitalize on the opportunities he earned, but unless the Eagles' next contest Week 11 against the Cowboys proves similarly noncompetitive, it's unlikely he'll turn in a third consecutive game of double-digit carries. New pickup Jay Ajayi is expected to gain more familiarity with the Eagles' playbook and take on a larger role in the offense after the bye week, while starter LeGarrette Blount also should be in store for slightly heftier workloads in most weeks than the 16 snaps he managed Sunday. That likely leaves little more than change-of-pace work available for Clement.

Clement rushed 10 times for a team-high 54 yards while failing to haul in his lone target in Sunday's 33-10 win over the 49ers.
EDGE Analysis
Clement's success came at the expense of Wendell Smallwood, who was limited to just one carry and one catch. LeGarrette Blount got into the end zone while seeing a team-high 16 rushing attempts, but the power runner's inability to catch the ball out of the backfield creates the need for a shiftier complement. If Clement can take over that role from Smallwood moving forward, the undrafted rookie out of Wisconsin would quickly work his way into the flex conversation.

Clement carried the ball twice for a total of one yard in Thursday's win over the Panthers.
EDGE Analysis
He wasn't targeted in the passing game. The undrafted rookie didn't do much with his touches and saw fewer than half as many snaps as Kenjon Barner. With Wendell Smallwood working his way back from injury possibly in time for next Monday night's contest, Clement has a long way to climb up the depth chart to fantasy relevance.

Clement rushed seven times for 17 yards and caught his lone target for a gain of 22 in Sunday's victory over the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
While Kenjon Barner was more effective in the run game, Clement showed he could help fill the void left by Darren Sproles with a nice little catch and run as the Eagles' two-minute drill began in the first half. With Wendell Smallwood due back from his knee injury soon, it remains difficult to trust anyone in the Eagles' backfield for fantasy purposes other than LeGarrette Blount.

With Wendell Smallwood (knee) not expected to play, Clement could take on a larger role in Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Les Bowen of the Philadelphia Daily News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Clement had 10 carries for 30 yards in Sunday's 26-24 win over the Chargers, setting new personal bests in terms of both workload and snap count (19). It's questionable how much Smallwood's absence actually helps Clement, given that Smallwood got a lot of his playing time on passing downs last week. LeGarrette Blount is still the lead runner, and recent addition Kenjon Barner could handle some of the pass-catching work. Clement still seems unlikely to get more than 8-to-12 carries in a difficult matchup against the Cardinals.
