Swinney excited about running backs behind Phil Mafah

CLEMSON – Who will be the No. 2 running back behind starter Phil Mafah? A clear pecking order is starting to unfold.

Mafah is the starter, and he sits just 16 snaps shy of 1,000 for his career. Behind Mafah, the once murky picture is beginning to clear.

Jarvis Green has been out the past couple of days. He got a little banged up, so he hadn't been able to get many reps. But man, I'm pleased with those guys,” Swinney said. “All three, Keith (Adams), Jay (Haynes) and Eazy-E (David Eziomume), I will say I'm super proud of him (Eziomume) because he had the furthest to go from where he was in the spring, and man, he just looks like the game has really slowed down for him.
