Ryan Mathews showing well at Eagles OTAs

Riddick attended the team's OTAs on Monday and observed "Demarco Murray gets the headlines, but Ryan Mathews looks VERY good. And they like him. A lot." (Louis Riddick on Twitter )

Fantasy Impact:

Offensive coordinator Pat Shurmur has already noted that "it takes a village" at the running back position. After jettisoning Lesean McCoy, the Eagles went out and signed Murray, last year's rushing champ, as well as Mathews, the former first-round pick who was limited to six games last season because of an ankle injury. Mathews, 27, rushed for a career-high 1,255 yards the previous season in San Diego. While the exact workload distribution is not yet clear -- Darren Sproles also remains in the mix -- Mathews stands to get a fair enough share to return some flex value.
