Saquon Barkley cleared for Week 9; DeVonta Smith and Dontayvion Wicks out

Nov 06, 2026

Saquon Barkley has no game designation for Sunday against the Giants after limited participation Friday with hamstring and back injuries. The Eagles ruled out DeVonta Smith with a hamstring injury and Dontayvion Wicks with an ankle injury. Neither receiver practiced this week.

Fantasy Impact:

Barkley is usable as an RB2, although clearance alone doesn’t guarantee a return to his usual workload. Makai Lemon is the most appealing Eagles wideout as a WR4/FLEX option, with Darius Cooper more suitable for deeper leagues. Dallas Goedert remains a low-end TE1 who could benefit from the missing receivers. Hollywood Brown and Elijah Moore are speculative plays, while Joe Milton’s first start is best approached as a lower-end SuperFlex option.

Rams TE Terrance Ferguson suffers hamstring injury, ruled out for Week 9

Terrance Ferguson was expected to return this weekend, but he suffered a hamstring injury in practice today and is now ruled out.

Fantasy Impact:

Tyler Higbee becomes a more appealing streaming option with low-end TE1 upside. Colby Parkinson is also questionable with a rib injury, leaving Davis Allen with a path to additional routes if Parkinson sits. Allen remains a touchdown-dependent option for deeper leagues, while Puka Nacua should continue commanding the passing game.

Zonovan Knight ruled out against Seahawks

Mike LaFleur said OL Jon Gaines II, RB Zonovan Knight and T Jayden Williams are all out for Sunday's game in Seattle.

Fantasy Impact:

With Knight out and Jeremiyah Love on injured reserve, Allgeier has a clear path to leading Arizona in carries and handling substantial receiving work. That volume makes him an RB2 despite the difficult matchup with Seattle. Hull is worth considering as deeper-league insurance, but managers should seek a more established workload before putting him in a FLEX spot.

A.J. Brown ruled out against Packers

Fantasy Impact:

Douglas is the strongest PPR WR3/FLEX option in this receiving group. Hollins could also enter FLEX consideration if activated from injured reserve, while Williams and Chism remain deeper-league alternatives. Henry’s availability still matters: if his foot injury keeps him out, Raridon would become a useful tight end streamer. Maye remains startable, although the depleted receiving corps adds uncertainty to his passing production.
