Rapoport: Saquon ‘week-to-week’ with hamstring

Saquon Barkley

PHI Running Back #26

Player Stats

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports Eagles RB Saquon Barkley (hamstring) is considered “week-to-week.”

Barkley departed the team’s Week 4 loss to the Rams in the second quarter and did not return, with Ian Rapoport relaying that the team views him as “week-to-week,” for the time being. Rapoport added that the team does not view the injury as a long-term issue. Regardless, Barkley appears set to miss multiple games with the soft tissue injury, leaving the team paper thin at running back after backup Tank Bigsby inured a core muscle that requires surgery. Will Shipley is the only other back currently on the active roster, while Dameon Pierce, Carson Steele, and Jaydon Blue are with the team on the practice squad. Shipley warrants a waiver addition while managers in deeper leagues can consider taking an early flier on Blue.

PHI Running Back #26

Saquon Barkley (hamstring) was not present at Wednesday’s practice.

The Eagles will drop their official injury report later today, but this can be chalked up as a DNP for Barkley. He was already considered week-to-week after suffering a hamstring injury on Sunday, so today’s DNP doesn’t come as a surprise. He is a long-shot to play in Week 5. With Tank Bigsby on IR, Will Shipley will lead the backfield versus Jacksonville. He profiles as a low-end RB3.
Tank Bigsby

PHI Running Back #8

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports Tank Bigsby will have core muscle surgery and be placed on injured reserve.

Rapoport reports there are hopes that Bigsby will be back “in six weeks or shorter.” The 24-year-old back will be required to miss at least four games now that he’s headed for an IR stint. With Saquon Barkley (hamstring) also at risk of missing at least one game, third-string RB Will Shipley could be in line for a busy day in Week 5 against the Jaguars. Shipley rushed six times for 23 yards in Sunday’s loss to the Rams, but could be a sneaky option in PPR leagues given his pass-catching profile during his days at Clemson, when he caught 85 passes over three seasons. It also wouldn’t be surprising if Dameon Pierce or Jaydon Blue were promoted off the practice squad and saw early down touches while Shipley serves in more of a third-down role. There’s a lot to figure out here over the next few days.
Saquon Barkley

PHI Running Back #26

Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni said he’ll “have more answers Wednesday” on Saquon Barkley’s hamstring injury.

Barkley went down early in Sunday’s loss to the Rams and did not return to the game. NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport said earlier on Monday that Barkley’s injury “does not seem to be overly serious,” but with the Eagles taking on the Jaguars in London next week, it wouldn’t be surprising if he missed at least one game. Backup Tank Bigsby led the Eagles with 55 rushing yards on 14 carries and could be a viable RB2 if Barkley is out.

PHI Running Back #26

Saquon Barkley (hamstring) will not return to the Eagles’ Week 4 game against the Rams.

Barkley was injured on the Eagles’ second series and officially ruled out midway through the second quarter. He had only two carries for eight yards before departing. It has been mostly Tank Bigsby since, though Will Shipley has received a smattering of handles. Already banged up this season, Barkley is probably in real danger of missing Week 5 against the Jaguars in London.
Saquon Barkley

PHI Running Back #26

Saquon Barkley was forced from the Eagles’ Week 4 game against the Rams with a hamstring injury and is questionable to return.

Barkley pulled up on a strong run on the Eagles’ second series. He dropped the ball out of bounds and appeared to be in a heap of pain, hopping around on one leg before taking a knee. He spent some time in the tent before making his way slowly to the locker room. Barkley pulls up not infrequently, but this had the looks of an issue likely to end his afternoon. Tank Bigsby was the next man up, taking a huge third down loss. Will Shipley should mix in, as well, if Barkley’s afternoon is indeed through.

PHI Running Back #26

Saquon Barkley rushed 15 times for 82 yards in the Eagles’ Week 3 loss to the Bears, losing two yards on one reception.

73 of Barkley’s 82 yards on the ground came before the half as the team was held to three consecutive three-and-outs after the break, capped off with an interception and turnover on downs on their five possessions to end the game. Offensive coordinator Sean Mannion’s offense remained predictable and uninventive on a night the Eagles held the football for just over 23 minutes while running only 47 offensive plays. Barkley also has exactly one reception in each of the team’s first three games of the season, effectively relegating him to a yardage-and-touchdown back in fantasy. It will be difficult for him to return value on his second-round draft capital on that profile. Consider Barkley an RB2 with a wider range of outcomes than we’ve grown accustomed to when the Eagles host the Rams in Week 4.

Eagles RB Saquon Barkley (stinger) was removed from the injury report Saturday and will play in Week 3 against the Bears.

Barkley briefly left the team’s Week 2 win with a stinger but would return in the second half to finish the game. He’ll be a back-end RB1 against the Bears through clear offensive struggles from the Eagles.

Eagles RB Saquon Barkley (stinger) practiced in full on Friday.

Barkley told reporters after practice that he is confident in his rehab program and plans to play in Week 3 against the Bears. His backups, RB Tank Bigsby (abdomen) and RB Will Shipley (foot), both resumed practicing today as limited participants. Expect Barkley to handle his normal workload in what should be a run-heavy game plan.

The Philadelphia Inquirer’s Jeff McLane reports that Eagles RB Saquon Barkley (stinger) expects to play in Week 3 against the Bears.

Per McLane, Barkley is suited up and present at Thursday’s practice. This puts him on track to face the Bears on Monday Night Football. Barkley underwent an MRI earlier this week. Apparently, the results were good. The Eagles’ No. 1 running back should be good to go, although he may end up logging a limited session to begin the week, as a precaution.

Saquon Barkley will undergo an MRI after suffering a stinger in the Eagles’ Week 2 win over the Titans.

"(We) will know more in the future” were Barkley’s words after he finished the day with four carries for nine yards and an 11-yard reception. That’s because Barkley did indeed “finish the day,” but he spent over two quarters on the sideline before barely touching the ball in the second half. The fact he returned at all suggests it’s not an overly serious issue, but it could end up being diagnosed as a neck ailment, which is always a delicate situation. Tank Bigsby is shaping up as a priority waivers add in the 60-70 percent of leagues where he is not currently rostered. We will hopefully update Barkley’s status on Monday.

Seahawks RB George Holani (ribs) was limited in Wednesday’s practice.

Holani was listed as a limited practice participant due to a rib injury on Wednesday. The 26-year-old operated as a passing-down backup to Emanuel Wilson in Week 4 with Jadarian Price out. Unless he misses practice later this week, he is still on track to play in Week 5, though Holani does not have a large enough role to achieve fantasy relevance.

Neither Surtain or Riley Moss (ribs) practiced on Wednesday. Head coach Sean Payton said the Broncos don’t anticipate placing Surtain on injured reserve. The injuries to both corners look to be shorter-term; Surtain is week-to-week while Moss’ return timeline is not disclosed yet. Both are on the wrong side of questionable for Week 5 against the Chargers.

Chargers WR Quentin Johnston (chest) was limited in Wednesday’s practice.

In addition to Johnston, TE Charlie Kolar (forearm) and WR Brenen Thompson (quad) were also limited. Johnston has played in every game this season, but pops up on the practice report with a chest issue on Wednesday. He is not yet in danger of missing Week 5, barring setbacks later in the week. Neither Thompson nor Kolar have played since Week 2 but both have a chance to return this week against the Broncos. With Ladd McConkey (foot) not practicing, Johnston may have fantasy value as the Chargers’ No. 1 wideout this week.

Chargers WR Ladd McConkey (foot) did not participate in Wednesday’s practice.

Though head coach Jim Harbaugh ambiguously said we would get McConkey in practice, the 24-year-old is officially listed as a non-participant on Wednesday. Harbaugh also previously stated McConkey will be day-to-day after he re-aggravated the foot injury in Week 4. Ultimately, it’s unclear if McConkey will play this week given he generally pushes through injuries with little practice time, but a re-aggravation could lead to a game missed this time around. Stay tuned for practice reports later in the week to provide clarity on his Week 5 status.

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports Chargers OT Joe Alt (neck) is expected to miss Week 5 against the Broncos.

An already disappointing season continues to tumbler for the Chargers. LT Rashawn Slater (ankle) is already out this week and Alt will join him on the injury report. Neither starting tackle has been able to stay healthy over the course of their careers, making life difficult for QB Justin Herbert. Though Alt is expected to miss this week against the Broncos, Rapoport adds that there are “no plans” for him to go on injured reserve.

Texans EDGE Will Anderson (ankle) did not participate in Wednesday’s practice.

Anderson popped up on the injury report with an ankle issue to open the week. As one of the league’s elite pass-rushers, the 25-year-old is a key cog to the Texans defense. He did not practice Wednesday, putting his Week 5 status in jeopardy. Anderson still has chances to practice later this week and play against the Titans, but any time missed puts the 0-4 Texans in an even deeper hole.

Given his lack of practice reps ahead of travelling to London for Week 5, Smith is on the wrong side of questionable for this week’s matchup against the Jaguars. Also not practicing was WR Hollywood Brown (ankle). The Eagles will play Week 5 with a severely banged-up skill position group.
