  Eagles | RB Tank Bigsby leaves game late in fourth quarter    Sun Oct 4, 04:16 PM

Eagles RB Tank Bigsby was injured in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game against the Rams with 3:59 left.

Footballguys view: He appeared to suffer a groin injury, but the team didn't give an update. Bigsby didn't do much immediately after replacing Saquon Barkley when he left with a hamstring injury, but he got warmed up in the second half before getting shaken up on a hit from Byron Young. We hope to know more about his status before making final decisions on waiver wire recommendations this week. If Bigsby and Barkley are both out in Week 5, Will Shipley will be a what-the-heck RB2/Flex against the Jaguars.

  Eagles | Saquon Barkley sidelined by hamstring injury in first quarter    Sun Oct 4, 02:31 PM

Eagles RB Saquon Barkley was injured in the first quarter of Sunday's game against the Rams with 11:48 left. He will not return (hamstring).

Footballguys view: Barkley has left two games with injuries in four weeks. He returned after suffering a shoulder stinger in Week 2, but didn't add much in the second half. This time, he won't have a chance to even do that. Tank Bigsby got most of the work over Will Shipley once Barkley left, and he warmed up down the stretch, but then he appeared to suffer a groin injury late. The Jaguars are up next week, and even though that's a revenge game for Bigsby, he's not going to be more than a flex play next week after the Jaguars smothered the Bengals running game in Week 4 -- that is if he is even available. Will Shipley would be a what-the-heck RB2/Flex if both Barkley and Bigsby are out next week.

  Eagles | Makai Lemon's role expected to grow with DeVonta Smith out; Eagles to 'use him more and more'    Sat Oct 3, 10:00 AM

Eagles rookie WR Makai Lemon is expected to take on a larger role alongside WR Dontayvion Wicks in Sunday's Week 4 game against the Rams with WR DeVonta Smith ruled out.

Footballguys view: Lemon caught 3-of-4 targets for 29 yards in the Eagles' Week 3 loss to the Bears. Without Smith in Week 4, the rookie gets more of a chance to prove himself. We like him as a WR4/flex for Fantasy GMs in PPR formats.

  Eagles | Wicks to take over as top receiver with Smith out; Cooper, Moore should see uptick    Sat Oct 3, 03:00 AM

Eagles WR Dontayvion Wicks will take over as the team's top receiver in Sunday's Week 4 game against the Rams with WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) out, and the coaching staff was extremely impressed by how he looked in that role in practice this week. With Smith and WR Hollywood Brown (ankle) out, the Eagles are likely to play Wicks, WR Makai Lemon and WR Darius Cooper the most, with WR Elijah Moore expected to rotate in; Cooper and Moore should see an uptick in playing time. Wicks has 9 catches on 15 targets for 179 yards and a touchdown through three games, second on the team behind Smith in all three categories. "We feel like everyone's capable of shouldering that burden," offensive coordinator Sean Mannion said this week.

Footballguys view: The Eagles are going to use Wicks and Lemon more without Smith. Wicks caught 2-of-5 targets for 32 yards in the Eagles' Week 3 loss to the Bears. This week, we've got Wicks in the WR3/flex range for Fantasy GMs in PPR formats.

  Eagles | Dallas Goedert (knee) ruled out for Sunday vs. Rams    Fri Oct 2, 04:02 PM

Eagles TE Dallas Goedert (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Rams. Goedert did not practice Wednesday or Thursday.

Footballguys view: Goedert was expected to miss a few weeks with the sprained MCL he suffered in Week 2. The team brought in Zach Ertz, and he was immediately active in Week 3. Ertz is coming off a season-ending ACL tear, but his cerebral game and knack for finding soft spots in coverage helped him get involved immediately. With DeVonta Smith also out this week, Dontayvion Wicks and Makai Lemon will lead the receiver room. With many of their passing options down, expect the Eagles to lean heavily on Saquon Barkley in this matchup against the Rams.

  Eagles | DeVonta Smith (hamstring) ruled out for Sunday vs. Rams    Fri Oct 2, 04:02 PM

Eagles WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's Week 4 game against the Rams. Smith sat out practice again on Friday before the decision.

Footballguys view: Reports say Smith could miss more than this week after suffering a hamstring injury. The Eagles planned to build their passing attack around Smith and Dallas Goedert this year after trading away A.J. Brown. Now they're down to Dontayvion Wicks, Makai Lemon, and Zach Ertz as their top receivers. Expect a run-heavy game plan in Week 4 against the Rams.

  Eagles | DeVonta Smith (hamstring) not seen at practice, Hollywood Brown also appears sidelined    Thu Oct 1, 02:42 PM

Eagles WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) was not seen at practice on Thursday. WR Hollywood Brown also appeared to be sidelined. Smith did not practice on Wednesday, when he was listed as a non-participant, and Brown also sat out that day. The Eagles host the Rams on Sunday.

Footballguys view: NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reports Smith is "now sounding like he's legitimately questionable" for Sunday's game against the Rams, and he's now missed two straight practices. He played through the hamstring last week, but that's no guarantee he can do it again. If Smith is active, he's a WR2 with upside, though a hamstring can limit his snaps. Have a backup plan ready and watch for his status before kickoff.

  Eagles | WR DeVonta Smith returns to full practice    Sat Sep 26, 04:01 PM

Eagles WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) was a full participant in Saturday's practice after being limited in an earlier session this week.

Footballguys view: Smith was seen stretching without his jersey during the media portion of practice, so getting clarity about his status is refreshing. A full practice on Saturday means Smith is clearly on track to play on Monday night against the Bears. To say the Bears defense is 'fantasy friendly' might be an understatement, making Smith a WR1 even if he's not quite 100 percent. Meanwhile, the Eagles have ruled out WR Hollywood Brown (ankle), so Smith will see less competition for targets

  Eagles | RB Tank Bigsby returns to full practice    Sat Sep 26, 04:01 PM

Eagles RB Tank Bigsby (abdomen) was a full participant in Saturday's practice after being limited in an earlier session this week.

Footballguys view: Good news for Bigsby after he returned Friday in a limited fashion. With Saquon Barkley good for Monday night against the Bears, Bigsby is in his usual backup spot behind him. Barkley is an RB1, and Bigsby is a high-value stash player on your bench.

  Eagles | DeVonta Smith stretching without jersey, Hollywood Brown not practicing    Sat Sep 26, 12:22 PM

Eagles WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) was stretching without his jersey at practice on Saturday. WR Hollywood Brown (ankle) is not practicing. Smith was limited in Friday's practice after missing Thursday's session, and Brown did not practice Friday.

Footballguys view: Many believe Smith will be able to play on Monday night against the Bears. If he goes against that defense, a top-10 finish in Week 3 is a distinct possibility - even at less than 100 percent. Resuming practice and then stretching without a jersey (presumably missing practice) is not a good sign for Smith's availability.

  Eagles | Saquon Barkley plans to play 'fearless' vs. Bears despite stinger    Sat Sep 26, 12:19 AM

Eagles RB Saquon Barkley plans to play "fearless" Monday night against the Bears as he eyes a return from a stinger injury. Barkley was limited in Thursday's practice with the shoulder injury before returning to full practice on Friday.

Footballguys view: Good news for the Eagles and Fantasy GMs here. A stinger is a scary injury, but Barkley has the right mindset. Both of his backups, RB Tank Bigsby (abdomen) and RB Will Shipley (foot), returned to practice (limited) on Friday as well. We like Barkley as an RB1 this week against the Bears as per usual.

  Eagles | Saquon Barkley will play vs. Bears, 'in a good spot' with stinger recovery    Fri Sep 25, 05:44 PM

Eagles RB Saquon Barkley will play in Monday night's game against the Bears. Barkley is confident in how his recovery from a stinger is going and believes he is in a good spot. He was limited in practice on Thursday while wearing a cowboy collar.

Footballguys view: When Barkley's imaging results were delayed earlier this week, people quickly assumed the worst. But Barkley laid those concerns to rest when he returned to practice on Thursday. He's expected to practice the next two days and play on Monday night. Add him to your lineup as an RB1.

  Eagles | Saquon Barkley expects to play against Bears despite injury    Thu Sep 24, 04:04 PM

Eagles RB Saquon Barkley is reportedly expected to play against the Bears in Chicago despite an injury. The report does not specify the nature of the injury or Barkley's practice status.

Footballguys view: The game is on Monday night in Week 3, so Fantasy GMs would like some clarity before Sunday. Watch Barkley's practice status through Saturday. Reports indicate Barkley underwent an MRI for the stinger he suffered in Week 2 against the Titans. At this time, Barkley is on track to play and we like him as an RB2 with upside in Week 3.

  Eagles | Eagles bring back Zach Ertz to practice squad after Goedert's MCL sprain    Mon Sep 21, 07:01 PM

Bryan DeArdo of CBS Sports reports that Eagles TE Zach Ertz is rejoining Philadelphia's practice squad with the expectation that he will play in the team's upcoming game against the Bears.

Footballguys view: The move comes after Eagles TE Dallas Goedert sprained his MCL during Sunday's win over the Titans and is expected to miss multiple weeks. Ertz, 36, last played for the Eagles in 2021 and spent last season with the Commanders before tearing his ACL in Week 14, catching 50 passes for 504 yards and four touchdowns prior to the injury.

  Eagles | Dallas Goedert out a few weeks with sprained knee    Mon Sep 21, 05:02 PM

Eagles TE Dallas Goedert, who continues to be a big part of their offense, suffered a sprained MCL in Sunday's win over the Titans, tests revealed today. He's expected to miss a few weeks, sources told NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and ESPN's Adam Schefter

Footballguys view: Johnny Mundt is the backup, but he's not known as a receiver, so the team reached out to former Eagles tight end Zach Ertz, who will join the team and provide some relief for the passing attack.

  Eagles | DeVonta Smith embraces WR1 role: 'I can be that guy'    Mon Sep 21, 03:00 AM

Eagles WR DeVonta Smith has stepped into the team's WR1 role following the offseason departure of A.J. Brown. Smith said, "I can be that guy," as he has produced strong performances to prove Philadelphia still has a legitimate top receiver.

Footballguys view: With 27.7 fantasy points and a 38% target share, Smith is well positioned to deliver WR1-level production for fantasy investors, too. We saw that with his WR4 overall (through Sunday night) performance in this one. Looking ahead, a Week 3 matchup against the Bears is another opportunity to excel.

  Eagles | Bigsby steps up as Barkley exits with shoulder stinger    Sun Sep 20, 08:37 PM

Yahoo Sports reports that Philadelphia Eagles RB Tank Bigsby took over the lead backfield role after RB Saquon Barkley left the game with a shoulder stinger.

Footballguys view: Barkley was evaluated on the sideline and became questionable to return, with Bigsby filling in as the primary ball-carrier in his absence. Bigsby carried the ball 13 times for 33 yards and a touchdown. He remains the locked in as a great insurance policy for fantasy managers invested in Barkley.

  Eagles | Barkley 'alright' after stinger, awaiting MRI to determine extent    Sun Sep 20, 05:46 PM

Eagles RB Saquon Barkley was forced out of Sunday's 24-20 win over the Titans with a stinger but returned briefly in the second half. Josh Alper of Pro Football Talk reports that Barkley told reporters he feels alright but will have an MRI to determine the extent of the injury, saying "We'll know more later in the week.

Footballguys view: Barkley finished the day with four carries for nine yards and one catch for 11 yards. Tank Bigsby and Will Shipley saw increased playing time after his injury. We'll be watching for more on Barkley in coming days.

  Eagles | Dallas Goedert injury: Eagles tight end questionable to return    Sun Sep 20, 02:06 PM

Eagles TE Dallas Goedert suffered a knee injury in the first half against the Titans in Week 2.

Footballguys view: Unlike Saquon Barkley, Goedert did not return to the game. After putting up a two-touchdown game in Week 1, Goedert was an attractive play in Week 2 against the struggling Titans defense, but was a zonk instead. Johnny Mundt is the backup, and the Eagles could also look to first round pick Makai Lemon to play a bigger role in the passing game for any games Goedert misses.

  Eagles | Smith catches 10 passes for 117 yards, a touchdown in win over Titans    Sun Sep 20, 01:00 PM

Philadelphia Eagles WR DeVonta Smith caught 10 passes for 117 yards and a touchdown on 13 targets in Sunday's 24-20 win over the Tennessee Titans. He was projected for 12.2 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 22.7.

Footballguys view: Smith had a huge game because the Titans were able to keep this close even though their defense is one of the worst in the league. He should remain in fantasy lineups against the Bears next week, although fantasy teams will need Tyson Bagent to keep the game competitive if Smith is going to have another game like this one. The Giants receivers will get to pick on the Titans secondary next week.

  Eagles | Barkley held to 9 yards on 4 carries in win over Titans    Sun Sep 20, 01:00 PM

Philadelphia Eagles RB Saquon Barkley ran 4 times for 9 yards and also caught 1 pass for 11 yards on 2 targets in Sunday's 24-20 win over the Tennessee Titans. He was projected for 14.9 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 2.5.

Footballguys view: Barkley was a dud in a great matchup because he missed most of the first half with a shoulder stinger. Tank Bigsby wasn't that impressive in his stead, but Barkley had little effect on the game after he returned. The Bears run defense is generous, so we'll start Barkley in fantasy leagues next week, but this was not the start to the season we were looking for when Barkley went in the second round of drafts.

  Eagles | Eli Stowers placed on IR; out at least 4 weeks    Sat Sep 12, 05:23 PM

The Philadelphia Eagles downgraded rookie TE Eli Stowers (hamstring) to out. He'd been listed as questionable. He was also placed on IR, so he's out for the first four weeks.

Footballguys view: Stowers is a rookie we appreciate in dynasty formats, but he was not set to do much for the Eagles this year. Dallas Goedert is the lead tight end, and Stowers was listed as no.3 on the depth chart behind Goedert and Johnny Mundt. Stowers is a move tight end who can attack the middle of the field with speed when healthy. Based on camp reports, it might be a year or two before he realizes his full potential as a pro.

  Eagles | McKee, Dalton both listed as QB2 behind Hurts    Tue Sep 8, 12:27 PM

Eagles General Manager Howie Roseman declined to say who the team has installed as Jalen Hurts' backup quarterback last week, and the team isn't sharing that information this week either. The team's depth chart for their Week 1 game against the Commanders lists both Tanner McKee and Andy Dalton as the second-string quarterback. Rookie Cole Payton is listed with the third team.

Footballguys view: McKee has spent the last three seasons with the team and has started in Week 18 the last two seasons. Dalton joined the Eagles in a trade with the Panthers this offseason and has extensive experience as a starter with five teams. As PFT's Josh Alper suggests, if head coach Nick Sirianni does not name a No. 2 quarterback at some point this week, the revelation will likely come when the inactive list is released 90 minutes ahead of kickoff on Sunday.

Footballguys view: Lemon returned to practice last week after an extended absence due to a hamstring injury, and the rookie is confident he'll have enough practice time to be at full speed for the season opener. Lemon dealt with a hamstring injury in the same leg during the offseason program, but said he isn't worried about further issues. The Eagles picked Lemon as part of their plans for life without A.J. Brown in 2026, so anything he can do to ensure he's on the field and playing at a high level over the next few weeks will be welcome in Philadelphia.
