Pumphrey (head) said he will be inactive Week 1 against Washington, Dave Zangaro of CSN Philadelphia reports.
This was to be expected with the Eagles seemingly training Pumphrey to serve as the eventual successor to Darren Sproles. It's quite possible the fourth-round rookie will be a healthy scratch all season, as he's too small to contribute on special teams as anything but a return man. Pumphrey left the preseason finale with a head injury but said afterward he wasn't diagnosed with a concussion, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
