Le'Raven

Clark

Clark, 29, appeared in 13 games as a backup for the Titans last year. The career swing tackle has 18 starts across six seasons between the Colts, Eagles, and Tennessee. Pittsburgh upgraded its interior line with free agents Isaac Seumalo and Nate Herbig this offseason. Clark adds depth at the tackle spots.

Clark was on Philadelphia’s squad. The Titans need reinforcements with Taylor Lewan out for the season. Clark hasn’t played more than 200 snaps in an NFL season since 2018. Starting Titans LT Dennis Daley has a 36.6 PFF pass block grade and his job is not necessarily secure.

Clark appeared in four games for the Eagles last year, one of which was a start at right tackle. As Adam Schefter pointed out, Clark was scouted by current Cowboys’ offensive line coach Joe Philbin when the Colts drafted him in 2016. With Tyron Smith down for most of the season because of a knee injury, Dallas now has a need at tackle. Clark would make sense as a backup option for the Cowboys, though first-round rookie Tyler Smith is slated to start.

The Eagles now have just three running backs on their roster: Miles Sanders, Boston Scott, and Kenny Gainwell. The Eagles also waived/released DB Andrew Adams, OT Le’Raven Clark, DL Hassan Ridgeway, TE Richard Rodgers, DB Kevon Seymour, DB Grayland Arnold, OG Kayode Awosika, WR Travis Fulgham, WR John Hightower, RB Jason Huntley, DB Craig James, DL Matt Leo, OG Iosua Opeta, WR Andre Patton, C Ross Pierschbacher, DB Elijah Riley, S JaCoby Stevens, and DL Raequan Williams.

A third-round pick in 2016, Clark appeared in 47 games for the Colts, mainly as a swing tackle. He made 15 starts in Indy. Clark will compete for a similar role in Philly under new coach Nick Sirriani, who was Clark’s OC with the Colts.

It’s the first interest in Clark, who tore his Achilles in Week 13. Buffalo signed Jamil Douglas earlier this week and are checking in on Clark’s recovery from season-ending surgery. When healthy, the 2016 third-rounder should resurface as a depth option on a non-guaranteed deal.

Clark’s MRI results confirmed that he’ll have to miss the rest of the season with said injury. It’s a huge blow for Indianapolis as the team is already without LT Anthony Castonzo for the next few weeks, leaving only Chaz Green and Danny Pinter until the latter is able to return. Green has yet to make a start for the Colts this year.

Clark got rolled up just moments into the game. He was labeled as “questionable,” but Clark could put no weight on his left foot before being carted. His day is through. It’s awful news for Philip Rivers and Jonathan Taylor behind a line that was trying to survive LT Anthony Castonzo’s absence. Chaz Green is now in the game on the blindside. Castonzo, who is not on injured reserve, will now be under increased pressure to return in Week 14.

The Colts drafted Clark in the third round of the 2016 draft, but he’s started just 12 games since. Still, he’s at least solid depth for one of the league’s best offensive lines.

Clark has been working extensively with the second-team offense at OTAs. He’s probably not in the mix to start, but could see snaps in jumbo packages.
