Howard rushed 15 times for 69 yards and recovered a fumble in the Eagles' 27-17 win over Washington on Tuesday night.
Howard's return from a two-game absence due to a knee injury was a success, and even with Miles Sanders excelling in his lead-back capacity, the veteran was able to put together a strong performance in his own right. Howard has logged double-digit carries in all five games he's seen action in this season, but his complete lack of a passing game role does cap his overall upside. Additionally, it's worth noting the Eagles had the luxury of running 70 total plays Tuesday, which afforded Howard the luxury of a hefty workload despite Sanders logging 18 carries himself.
