Eagles RB Saquon Barkley (knee) listed as DNP Monday

Eagles RB Saquon Barkley was listed as DNP Monday with a knee injury.

Related players: Will Shipley, A.J. Dillon, Tank Bigsby

Fantasy Impact:

This will be one to watch on a short week against the Giants. Barkley hasn't been much of a factor in the run game this season after going over 2,000 yards last year. He did catch a TD pass in Week 5's loss to the Broncos. We'll keep an eye on this one. If Barkley can't go on a short week, Dillon and Shipley will likely split the workload and Bigsby could be a factor as well.

Eagles RB Will Shipley dealing with fractured rib

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...

Related players: Saquon Barkley, A.J. Dillon

Fantasy Impact:

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.

Eagles trade for RB Tank Bigsby

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

Fantasy Impact:

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.

Packers place RB A.J. Dillon on season-ending IR

Pro Football Talk

Aug 27, 2024 · 4:42 PM EDT

Running back A.J. Dillon was placed on injured reserve and was not designated to return, meaning he is done for the year.

Dillon recently suffered another stinger and last week said he was awaiting test results. Head coach Matt LaFleur had said “absolutely there’s a concern” with Dillon’s injury, noting that Green Bay would proceed cautiously.

Fantasy Impact:

Dillon, 26, was expected to be the primary backup to running back Jacobs, and the team recently announced the rookie Lloyd will start the season on the PUP list and miss the first four games of the season at least. Wilson and Merriweather are now behind Jacobs, but it's possible the Packers will have to make a move at the position at least until Lloyd comes back.
