Washington Redskins head coach Jay Gruden expects Rob Kelley to play Monday against the Philadelphia Eagles.
Kelley has been battling an ankle injury which kept him out of last Sunday's game against the San Francisco 49ers.
"Yeah, he's doing good. If he plays, then yes, he will probably be back at number one. We’ll use all three of them, like we always do," Gruden said Friday.
Samaje Perine and Chris Thompson will also gain carries, as Gruden indicated. The coach also said Mack Brown will be added into the mix if Kelley can't play.
Kelley has rushed for 131 yards on 29 carries in three games this season.
