Eagles RB Saquon Barkley hurt his left shoulder on the first play of Sunday's win over the Titans. He managed to return for 11 more snaps in the second half, but finished the game with just four carries and a catch for 20 total yards. In Barkley's near-absence, Tank Bigsby "led" the Philly rushing with 33 yards on 13 attempts, a sickly 2.5-yard average. Will Shipley followed with seven carries for 24 yards (3.4 per rush). Each guy caught both of his targets for a mere 5 yards apiece. Bigsby contributed the team's lone rushing score.

Eagles RB Saquon Barkley said after the win over the Titans that he'll get an MRI on the stinger he suffered on his first carry. Barkley returned for a the start of the second half but had just 3 more carries and 1 catch the rest of the way. RBs Tank Bigsby (13 carries, 2 targets) and Will Shipley (7 carries, 2 targets) split work fairly evenly with Barkley limited. Bigsby came away with 38 yards and a TD to Shipley's 29 yards and would be the better fantasy play if Barkley misses time. We should learn more tomorrow.

Eagles RB Saquon Barkley matched his season high with 22 carries in Monday night's win over the Packers. But he averaged just 2.7 yards per rush in totaling 60 yards on the ground, with a quarter of that coming on a 15-yard first half dash. Barkley did add 41 yards on 3 receptions, though it's worth noting that he collected all of that on a single swing pass that produced 41 yards on after-catch space plus a nice spin move. He also lost a 21-yard run in the second quarter to a holding penalty on G Brett Toth. One thing that did change vs. Green Bay: Barkley played his smallest snap share for any healthy game this year.

His absence leaves Philadelphia with RBs Tank Bigsby, Will Shipley, and A.J. Dillon.

Eagles RB Saquon Barkley is listed as "did not practice" with a knee issue on Monday's injury report. The team didn't actually practice just a day after their loss to Denver. Barkley recorded a season-low 6 carries on a season-low 72% snap rate in that one, and the knee could have been a factor. Of course, we're also talking about a veteran RB on a short week, so this could turn out to be nothing at all. We'll update Barkley's status again on Tuesday. His absence vs. the Giants on Thursday night would likely leave RBs Will Shipley and A.J. Dillon working in a timeshare.

Update: Per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, Barkley had "general soreness" coming out of the Broncos game and "fully expects" to play on Thursday night.

Eagles RB Saquon Barkley heads into Monday night with the 10th-best PPR score at the position for Week 5. But his production against the Broncos carried positive and negative.

Eagles RB Will Shipley (oblique) put in a full practice on Wednesday. That should have him on track to play vs. the Buccaneers this weekend. Shipley should return as Philadelphia's No. 2 RB, but we'll keep an eye on how snaps are divvied behind workhorse Saquon Barkley.

Eagles RB Will Shipley (oblique) is out for this weekend’s game vs. the Rams. He got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday, which should have him on track for a Week 4 return. A.J. Dillon operated as Philadelphia’s No. 2 RB last week. RB Tank Bigsby did not play on offense.

Eagles RB Will Shipley (oblique) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. It gives him a shot to make it back for this weekend's game vs. the Rams. Shipley, of course, is not a fantasy option as long as RB Saquon Barkley is healthy. But we're curious to see how the depth chart shakes out behind Barkley between Shipley, Tank Bigsby, and A.J. Dillon.

Eagles RB Will Shipley (oblique) is out for Sunday’s game against the Chiefs. That’ll leave A.J. Dillon and the recently acquired Tank Bigsby behind Saquon Barkley. We don’t have a timetable for Shipley’s return.

Eagles RB Will Shipley suffered a rib injury in the first half of Thursday night's opener vs. the Cowboys. He was officially deemed "questionable" to return but never did. The second-year back got involved early, with two carries for 25 yards on Philadelphia's opening possession. He carried once more on the second possession before getting hurt. A.J. Dillon operated as the Eagles' No. 2 RB the rest of the way. We'll update Shipley's status when we learn more.

The Eagles signed RB A.J. Dillon to a one-year deal. Dillon missed the entire 2024 season after a neck injury that dated back to 2023. He was medically cleared last week, though, and will now battle for a role behind Saquon Barkley in Philadelphia.

Eagles RB Will Shipley (concussion) is active for today’s game vs. the Giants. RB Kenneth Gainwell is the only other active RB for Philadelphia. Expect Shipley to get the ball plenty in this one. He cracks the top 25 in our Week 18 RB Rankings.
