Mathews to play various roles?

Prior to the Eagles secon minicamp practice on Wednesday, Chip Kelly spoke about Ryan Mathews' speed and size combination and the role he cam play for the team. Kelly noted that Mathews has been "used a little on kickoff return" during minicamp. While Kelly talked up Mathews, he noted that things could be different when the pads go on during camp.

Fantasy Impact:
With Mathews healthy, he can be the battering ram inside the 5 yard line that Philly has been looking for. Don't be surprised if Mathews plays a change-of-pace and goal line back role. While he maybe practicing on the kickoff return team, Mathews will likely sit out special teams duties due to his injury history. Mathews will be a must-have for DeMarco Murray owners.
