Donnel Pumphrey was having a great camp, but roster spot now in jeopardy - NBCSP
Eagles head coach Doug Pederson gave little clarity to Pumphrey’s injury Saturday when asked how big a blow missing the preseason opener was to Pumphrey, but he did say this quite ominously: “It’s hard,” he said. “It’s hard for young players, quite honestly in this league, to make rosters.” OK then. Pumphrey, a record-setting back at San Diego State University and a fourth-round pick last year, was already in a roster battle before he got hurt, but he was making plays and looked worlds better than during his lost rookie year.
