Former Wisconsin running back and Philadelphia Eagles Super Bowl 52 hero Corey Clement visited the Eagles 2024 training camp practice on Sunday.
The versatile running back is a free agent entering the 2024 NFL season after spending the last few seasons on the Arizona Cardinals practice squad.

Clement played for Wisconsin from 2013-2016. He appeared in 39 games over those four seasons, rushing for 3,092 total yards and 36 touchdowns.
2016 was Clement’s best in his college career. He helped lead the Badgers to an 11-3 record with 1,375 rushing yards and 15 touchdowns on 314 carries, plus 12 receptions and 132 receiving yards.
The 2016 first-team All-Big Ten running back went unselected during the 2017 NFL draft and signed with the Eagles as an undrafted free agent.

Clement’s Eagles tenure was by far his best as a professional.
His rookie season in 2017 included a career-high 74 carries, 321 rushing yards and four rushing touchdowns. He played a critical role in the Eagles’ 41-33 Super Bowl victory over the New England Patriots, catching four passes for 100 receiving yards and a touchdown.
Clement’s career never took off after that. He played for the Eagles until the end of the 2020 season, primarily seeing time on special teams. He then spent 2021 with the Dallas Cowboys, and 2022 and 2023 with the Arizona Cardinals.
Despite a lack of longevity, Clement’s career will always be remembered in Philadelphia thanks to his Super Bowl performance. His third-quarter touchdown reception remains one of the more impressive, and improbable, plays in Super Bowl history.
