ESPN's Adam Caplan expects Eagles QB Nick Foles to play 3-4 series in today's game against the Cowboys. QB Nate Sudfeld will take over the rest of the way. Philly's top skill-position guys also figure to be pulled early today. It's a situation to avoid in Week 17 fantasy lineups.

Eagles HC Doug Pederson said Friday that his starters will play against the Cowboys on Sunday -- but indicated that they won't play the entire game. "I want all the starters to play," Pederson said. "... I want to make sure that they stay in the moment, but at the same time be smart with how much they play, how long they play, and go from there." It's unclear exactly how much Philly's skill-position guys will play, but anything less than a full game makes them hands-off in Week 17 fantasy lineups.

Chiefs HC Andy Reid announced Wednesday that QB Nick Foles will start this weekend's game against the Jaguars. The team claims that QB Alex Smith didn't sustain a concussion last Sunday, but Reid said that he's in the "return-to-play" protocol. It's a confusing situation. Foles was surprisingly solid in relief of Smith last week, completing 16 of 22 passes for 223 yards, 2 TDs and 0 INTs. He's on the 2-QB radar for Week 9, and we wouldn't consider him a significant downgrade for WR Jeremy Maclin or TE Travis Kelce.

The Chiefs have signed QB Nick Foles. He's reuniting with HC Andy Reid, who was with the Eagles when they drafted Foles back in 2012. Foles' big 2013 season, of course, came under HC Chip Kelly. Alex Smith remains locked in as Kansas City's starting QB. Foles should at least be able to beat out Aaron Murray, Tyler Bray and Kevin Hogan for the backup job.

The Rams have released QB Nick Foles. He was brutal in his 1 season with the team, completing 56.4% of his passes, averaging 6.1 yards per attempt and tossing 7 TDs vs. 10 INTs in 11 appearances. Foles will latch on elsewhere (Broncos?) but is a poor bet to make starts this year. Los Angeles is paving the way for #1 overall pick Jared Goff. Only Case Keenum stands between Goff and the starting job.
