UPDATE: Former Clemson star could miss weeks with NFL foot injury
Will Shipley received an opportunity to lead Eagles backfield. A newly reported diagnosis could prevent the former Clemson star from building on it.
Former Clemson football star Will Shipley suffered a partial tear of his plantar fascia during the Philadelphia Eagles' 19-17 defeat to the Jacksonville Jaguars, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. The injury may keep him sidelined for several weeks. Shipley, who made his second career NFL start and first since 2024 after Saquon Barkley was sidelined with a hamstring injury, scored his first regular-season touchdown with a 2-yard run.
He finished the game with five carries for six yards and a catch for seven yards. Philadelphia's rushing attack was severely hampered, as they gained only 22 yards on 18 attempts. Prior to this injury, Shipley had already reached the end zone during Philadelphia's 2025 NFC Championship game victory.
