Eagles sign running back Josh Adams off practice squad, release DeAndre Carter

The Eagles have signed running back Josh Adams off of their practice squad, sources have confirmed. The promotion was first reported by Mike Garafolo of NFL Network.

The Eagles' running back corps has been decimated by injuries. Jay Ajayi injured his back in the loss to the Bucs and played just 20 snaps and had only seven carries. Darren Sproles missed the game with a hamstring injury. Also, wide receiver Mike Wallace fractured his fibula in the game and will be out at least two months, maybe longer.
