Team news: Philadelphia Eagles | Page 4

Sources classify Xavier Worthy as "50-50" to return for Week 3 against the Giants, noting optimism but also the need to see him handle a fuller practice workload. "Have to see how he looks with real practice reps," the source said. Worthy practiced in a limited capacity Thursday and Friday of last week, and the Chiefs will ramp up his workload coming off the shoulder injury.

It would be hard to trust Worthy in fantasy lineups if he's still on 50-50 this late in the week, so he's best left on benches even if he does suit up. Brown should continue to be considered a WR3 regardless, while the rest of the WR room are only suggested in very deep leagues.

Asked Eagles OC Kevin Patullo about the lack of designed QB runs and zone read keeps for Jalen Hurts. Said just haven’t gotten to or because of how they’re being defended.

“Don’t worry, they’re coming.”

Last season the Eagles offense took about four weeks to really get going, especially the passing game. So, it's possible the team hasn't shown all its cards yet on that side of the ball. Hurts threw for just over 100 yards, but he also just ran for 15 yards in Week 2 after running for 62 yards in Week 1.

Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy (shoulder) is officially doubtful for Sunday vs. the Eagles.

Brown is the most obvious beneficiary and should be considered a fringe WR2/3. Smith-Schuster will operate underneath with a limited ceiling, while Thornton is a desperation boom/bust play.

Packers WR Jayden Reed will miss 6-8 weeks with a broken collarbone.

This would presumably tighten the WR rotation a little bit, but as we saw on TNF, it would take a lot of consolidation to be able to trust any of the Packers receivers to garner a large workload. Continue to hold Golden, and potentially also Doubs in deeper leagues, but TE Tucker Kraft is the easiest click of this group, even after Reed's injury.

A good sign: Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy, who injured his shoulder just six days ago, returned to practice today on a limited basis.

The rumor has been that the team will try to have Worthy play through the injury with a brace, but it's hard to expect him back out on the field in Week 2. Brown is the most obvious beneficiary and should be considered a fringe WR2/3. Smith-Schuster will operate underneath with a limited ceiling ,while Thornton is a desperation boom/bust play.

Chiefs coach Andy Reid says WR Xavier Worthy continues to rehab. He won't practice today. Surgery and a potential IR stint are not being considered at this time.

The rumor is, the team will try to have Worthy play through the injury with a brace, but we shouldn't expect him back out on the field in Week 2. Brown is the most obvious beneficiary, and should be considered a fringe WR2/3. Smith-Schuster will operate underneath with a limited ceiling while Thornton is a desperation boom/bust play.

Even in the midst of rehab for his torn ACL, the Packers are rewarding WR Christian Watson with a one-year, $13.25 million contract extension, per his agent Adisa Bakari.

Schefter went on to say the extension ties Watson to Green Bay through the 2026 season, allows him to focus on getting healthy and not having to play this season for a new deal. Watson remains on PUP, and is expected back later this season. Even when Watson comes back, it's tough to predict what kind of fantasy value he will have with a crowded WR room.

Sources tell me Will Shipley does have a fractured rib and the move for Tank Bigsby is not only to add depth at the RB position but Bigsby can also help out on special teams including returning kicks...

Reports on Monday after the trade denied Shipley's rib injury was the reason for the deal, but it appears a fractured rib could cause him to miss time. This would better explain the trade for Bigsby. The Eagles did have a need for a kick returner however.

Trade: Jaguars are sending RB Tank Bigsby to the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for 2026 fifth- and sixth-round picks, per sources.

For the Eagles, this seems like a bit of a surprise, but definitely adds some depth. Reports since the trade say Bigsby could be the Eagles kick returner. Shipley and Dillon each got three carries in Week 1 behind Barkley, but Bigsby seems like more of an upgrade for Dillon as both are more of between the tackles runners. For the Jaguars, many were waiting for one of Bigsby or Etienne to get moved, but after Etienne ran for 143 yards on 16 carries in Week 1, the Jags look to be comfortable giving Etienne the RB1 job. It's good news for Tuten owners, as the rookie now looks to be the team's RB2, and can probably be added in most leagues if he's on your wire.

Chiefs WR Hollywood Brown is off the injury report and good to go tomorrow night vs. the Chargers in Brazil.

Good sign for Mahomes and the offense in general, as they will already be without Rashee Rice for the opening portion of the season. Pencil in Worthy is a potential upside WR4 in Week 1.
