Patriots WR DeVante Parker left in the 1st quarter of Monday night's game vs. the Cardinals for a concussion check. He appeared woozy on the field, so we doubt he's cleared to return to this one.
Update: Parker has been ruled out with a head injury.
Giants RB Saquon Barkley avoided a setback with his neck injury in Sunday's loss to the Eagles. "Came out of the game pretty well [physically]," Barkley said afterward. He also revealed that the injury is a stinger and happened in practice last week. Barkley was clearly limited in the Philly game, finishing with just 9 carries and 2 targets on a season-low 31% snap rate. HC Brian Daboll said Monday that the team is "hopeful" Barkley will be in better shape this week. We'll keep a close eye on his practice participation leading up to Sunday's huge game vs. the Commanders.
The Giants gave RB Saquon Barkley just 9 carries and 2 targets in Sunday's loss to the Eagles. He trailed both RB Gary Brightwell and RB Matt Breida by 2 snaps, in a game Barkley entered as a game-time decision because of a neck issue. We'll see about Barkley's status heading into a Week 15 visit to Washington.
Eagles WR DeVonta Smith led the team in targets (8) and receptions (5) in Sunday's win over the Giants. He generated 64 yards and a TD, scoring from 41 yards out on a 4th-down play in the 1st half. WR A.J. Brown trailed him with a 4-70-1 line on 6 looks, staging QB Jalen Hurts' only other scoring throw. Philly gets a high-ceiling matchup with a bad Bears defense in Week 15.
Eagles QB Jalen Hurts threw for 217 yards and 2 TDs in Sunday's win over the Giants, adding 77 yards and another score on the ground. Hurts generated most of his passing production in the 1st half, attempting just 7 throws after the break. It was Hurts' 2nd straight game with 3+ TDs and 3rd such game among the past 5.
Steelers QB Kenny Pickett exited in the 1st quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Ravens to be checked for a concussion. QB Mitchell Trubisky replaced him. We'll update Pickett's status when we know more.
Update: Pickett has been ruled out. This is his 2nd concussion of the season.
Giants RB Saquon Barkley (neck) is active for today’s game vs. the Eagles. He was listed as questionable and reportedly a game-time decision, but we haven’t heard anything about his workload being limited today. Barkley certainly carries elevated risk in Week 14 fantasy lineups, but you’d need to be loaded at RB to bench him. See where Barkley sits in the Week 14 RB Rankings.
Giants HC Brian Daboll told NFL Network's Mike Garofolo that RB Saquon Barkley (neck) will play against the Eagles today. The neck issue adds risk to Barkley's Week 14 fantasy profile, but we've heard nothing to suggest that it'll impact his workload today.
ESPN's Adam Schefter hears that RB Saquon Barkley (neck) is "legit 50/50" to play vs. the Eagles today. The Giants "want to see how he feels Sunday in pre-game warmups before deciding whether he will play." We'll get New York's inactives around 11:30 am ET. If Barkley sits, the Giants will be down to RBs Matt Breida and Gary Brightwell.
ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports that Giants RB Saquon Barkley is "legitimately 50-50" to be active for Sunday's game against the Eagles. Officially questionable, Barkley was limited in practice Thursday and Friday and will carry some risk even if active. We'll certainly be tracking his status Sunday morning. RB-needy teams could add Matt Breida ahead of game time, though he wouldn't be a strong fantasy football option even if Barkley is inactive.
Giants RB Saquon Barkley (neck) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Eagles. He was added to the injury report on Thursday and then limited again in Friday’s practice. HC Brian Daboll said Friday that Barkley’s neck is “a little sore” and said, “I hope so” when asked whether Barkley will play this weekend. ESPN’s Jordan Raanan, for what it’s worth, said that he’d be surprised if Barkley didn’t play. We’ll look for further updates on the situation and will get the Giants’ inactives around 11:30 am on Sunday. RB Matt Breida would be the best bet for carries in New York if Barkley doesn’t play.
Giants RB Saquon Barkley was added to the injury report and limited in Thursday's practice with a neck issue. We don't have any other details at this point. We'll see what Barkley does in Friday's practice and how he's listed on the final injury report for Sunday's game vs. the Eagles. Matt Breida would likely be New York's lead back if Barkley misses this one.
Eagles WR A.J. Brown caught 8 balls for 119 yards and 2 TDs in Sunday's beatdown of the team that traded him in April. Brown led the team with 10 targets, notching scores from 40 and 29 yards out. His longer TD came a play after Brown appeared to score from the same distance but just missed getting a 2nd foot down inbounds. WR DeVonta Smith added 5-102-1 receiving, averaging 20.4 yards per catch. Philly's WRs face another soft secondary in their Week 14 matchup with the Giants.
QB Jalen Hurts and the Eagles couldn't find much running room Sunday against the Titans' league-leading rush defense. But he dominated Tennessee through the air. Hurts threw for 380 yards and 3 TDs on 29-of-39 passing. He hit WR A.J. Brown for 2 scores and WR Devonta Smith for the other. Hurts' only worrisome remaining matchup lies in Week 16 at Dallas, which limited him to 182 total yards (and 2 TD passes) in a Week 6 Eagles win.
Giants RB Saquon Barkley carried 18 times for 63 yards and a TD in Sunday's tie with the Commanders. It was a predictably sluggish performance (3.5 per rush) against 1 of the league's toughest run defenses. Barkley's carry total beat each of his previous 2 games, at least. He also caught 5 passes (for 18 yards), his most since Week 1. Week 14 brings the season's 1st matchup with the Eagles.
Eagles TE Dallas Goedert told reporters on Wednesday that his recovery from his shoulder injury is going well and that he hopes to be ready to return when first eligible in Week 15, according to NBC Philadelphia's Dave Zangaro. If you kept Goedert stashed over the past 2 weeks, keep stashing. And if he was dropped in your fantasy league, he might be worth grabbing now.
Eagles S C.J. Gardner-Johnson suffered a lacerated kidney in Sunday night's win over the Packers and is out indefinitely, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. It's reportedly not expected to end Gardner-Johnson's season, but we'd bet on at least multiple missed games. That makes Gardner-Johnson OK to drop for a replacement in many IDP leagues. You can stash him in deeper formats, though.
Eagles QB Jalen Hurts threw for just 153 yards in Sunday night's win over the Packers, including TDs to WR A.J. Brown and WR Quez Watkins. Hurts beat his own passing with 157 yards on the ground. It was the 2nd-best fantasy line of a strong fantasy season for Hurts.
Eagles S C.J. Gardner-Johnson suffered a rib injury in the 1st quarter of Sunday night's game against the Packers and is questionable to return.
Giants RB Saquon Barkley totaled just 52 yards in Thursday's loss to the Cowboys. He managed 39 yards on 11 carries (3.5 per rush) and tallied merely 13 yards on 4 receptions Barkley's 6 targets tied 2 others for the team lead. Gary Brightwell chimed in with 5-31 rushing and 2 catches (on 2 targets) for 18 yards. RB Matt Breida went 2-6 rushing and caught his lone target for 9 yards.
