Mathews rushed nine times for 32 yards and two touchdowns in Monday night's win over the Bears.
Mathews also caught his lone target for three yards Monday. After a whopping 22 carries to start the season, the veteran's total of nine in Week 2 is a bit curious, but considering teammate Darren Sproles managed just 40 yards from his 12 carries, neither player was very efficient on average. In fact, 30 of Mathews' 32 rushing yards came on one play. That being said, Mathews still proved effective when it mattered, scoring from three yards and one yard on his respective second-half touchdowns. Following a low-volume effort in Monday's pull-away win, Mathews will likely be needed more often in the Eagles' Week 3 game against the Steelers.
