Clyde Edwards-Helaire (shoulder) did not practice on Friday.
Andy Reid noted that he’s not ruling Edwards-Helaire out yet and that he is comfortable playing the second-year running back without him practicing. Reid also noted that Jerrick McKinnon could be activated from injured reserve if Edwards-Helaire is unable to play. That activation would occur on Saturday. If Edwards-Helaire plays he will be an RB2 in a potential shootout with the Bengals. However, Darrel Williams is very likely to steal passing down work and potentially goal line work as well. If Edwards-Helaire is out, Williams profiles as a high-ceiling RB2, even if McKinnon is active. McKinnon’s presence would remove any deep league appeal for reserve running back and highlight machine Derrick Gore.
