Eagles-Vikings inactives: Corey Clement will play, Haloti Ngata out, Josh Sweat to get first snaps

Eagles running back Corey Clement will play Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings, although defensive tackle Haloti Ngata is inactive.

The Eagles' other inactives are defensive end Derek Barnett, offensive tackle Jordan Mailata, offensive guard Matt Pryor, running back Darren Sproles, quarterback Nate Sudfeld, and offensive lineman Chance Warmack.

Clement did not practice this week with a quadriceps injury. He also missed last week's game. However, he's healthy enough to play and will join a backfield with Jay Ajayi, Wendell Smallwood, and Josh Adams.

Ngata injured his calf during practice on Friday and was questionable for the game. The Eagles are left undermanned at defensive without Ngata; Destiny Vaeao and Treyvon Hester are the defensive tackles behind Fletcher Cox. Hester is making his Eagles debut.

Barnett is out with a shoulder injury. He did not practice this week. The Eagles have Brandon Graham, Michael Bennett, Chris Long, and Josh Sweat active at defensive end. Sweat had been active once before, but did not play, so he will take his first snaps on Sunday.

The Vikings are missing three starters: running back Dalvin Cook, cornerback Trae Waynes, and defensive end Everson Griffen. Latavius Murray will start at running back, Mike Hughes will start at cornerback, and Stephen Weatherly will start at defensive end.
