Saquon Barkley — Questionable

After being deemed a non-participant in Wednesday's walkthrough, Barkley now appears absent again at the start of Thursday's session. His official participation level will be confirmed by Philadelphia's injury report later Thursday, but Barkley seems to be trending in the wrong direction after sustaining what he described as a compensatory back injury during Monday's 38-21 loss to the Cowboys, which marked his return from a two-game absence. Jaydon Blue is the top healthy alternative on the Eagles' active roster behind Barkley heading into Sunday night's game against the Commanders, with Elijah Mitchell a candidate to be elevated from the team's practice squad ahead of Week 8 action.

The Eagles are listing Barkley's previous hamstring injury and the back issue that he picked up during Monday's loss to the Cowboys as the reasons for Wednesday's absence. He'll have two more chances to mix into drills this week, but even if he isn't able to, he mentioned of the aforementioned contest that his "hamstring came out great" and that he isn't worried about the new health concern, per Tim McManus of ESPN.com. Ultimately, Friday's injury report will reveal Barkley's odds to suit up Sunday at Washington.

While suiting up for the first time since Week 4 after missing the Eagles' previous two games due to a hamstring strain, Barkley took the field for just 10 snaps on the night but was impactful in his limited playing time. He touched the ball on nine of those snaps, carrying seven times for 62 yards and a touchdown to go with two receptions for nine yards on two targets. Heading into the game, the Eagles had deliberately planned to manage Barkley's workload to some extent, but he ended up seeing fewer snaps than anticipated after his back locked up on him following a 29-yard run in the first quarter. He didn't end up taking any snaps after the third quarter, with the Eagles leaning exclusively on Dameon Pierce (undisclosed) and Elijah Mitchell out of the backfield over the final 15 minutes. Fortunately for Barkley, the back issue doesn't seem to be a major concern, but his activity in practice this week will warrant monitoring as the Eagles assess his availability for Sunday's contest.

Eagles' Saquon Barkley says hamstring 'great' in return, not sweating back issue

Eagles running back Saquon Barkley said his "hamstring came out great" and doesn't believe his back issue will keep him out after a gutsy and highly efficient performance in a loss to the Cowboys on Monday night.

Saquon Barkley — Questionable

Barkley had been dealing with a hamstring injury for multiple weeks coming into Monday, but he tried to tough it out and give Philadelphia a boost. He did just that on the team's first drive, as he gained 12 yards on a reception on the first play and immediately followed that with a 29-yard rush. Barkley appeared to pull up a bit lame on the latter play, but he still managed an eight-yard rushing TD less than two minutes later. However, the star running back was used only intermittently for the remainder of the contest, and Dameon Pierce ended up logging 14 carries (on which he gained 47 yards and scored a TD) to Barkley's seven. Smith reports that Barkley was on a "pitch count" ahead of Monday's game; however, he was deemed questionable to return early in the fourth quarter with what was described as a back injury and never returned. It appears the back issue was a side effect of Barkley tweaking the hamstring problem, which casts considerable doubt on his ability to suit up next Sunday against the Commanders.

Saquon Barkley — Questionable

Barkley entered Monday's contest managing a hamstring injury but was ultimately able to suit up. The star running back looked hobbled throughout much of the game but was able to tally 62 yards and a touchdown on just seven carries along with two catches on two targets for nine yards before being deemed questionable to return early in the fourth period. The Eagles indicated that Barkley is dealing with a back issue when announcing his 'questionable' tag, so it's unclear if the hamstring is also still bothering him.

Saquon Barkley — Active

Barkley is available to power the Eagles' backfield for the first time since Week 4, ending a two-game absence due to a hamstring injury. Considering he practiced fully Saturday, he may be ready to operate as a workhorse as he did in his two healthy games (Weeks 1 and 3) this season. In those games, Barkley combined for 32 touches for 160 yards from scrimmage and no TDs.

Saquon Barkley — Questionable

Though No. 1 wideout DeVonta Smith (hamstring) has been ruled out for the Week 7 contest, the Eagles are expected to get one of their other top playmakers in Barkley back in action following a two-game absence. Barkley participated in practice throughout the week, turning in limited sessions Thursday and Friday before upgrading to full activity Saturday. Assuming his hamstring checks out fine while warming up Monday, Barkley's availability should be confirmed when the Eagles release their inactive list 90 minutes prior to the 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff.

Saquon Barkley — Questionable

Barkley followed up limited sessions Thursday and Friday with a full practice Saturday, but his status remains up in the air for Week 7 action. He's seeking his first game action since Week 4 as he tends to a lingering hamstring injury, something that'll be confirmed, one way or another, about 90 minutes before Monday's 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff.

Saquon Barkley — Questionable

Barkley was a limited participant in each of the first two practices of Week 7 prep as the star running back works his way back from a hamstring injury that sidelined him for each of the Eagles' last two games. Saturday's practice report will shed light on Barkley's status ahead of Monday's game against the Cowboys, and a full session would likely be enough for him to avoid an injury designation. His return would result in Dameon Pierce reverting to a rotational role in the backfield.

Saquon Barkley — Questionable

Barkley now has logged back-to-back capped practices this week, giving him one more chance to get back to full Saturday, at which point the Eagles may make a ruling on his status for Monday's game against the Cowboys. He's missed the last two games due to a hamstring injury.

Saquon Barkley — Questionable

After practicing in a limited capacity Thursday, Barkley was on the field again Friday as he continues to work back from the hamstring injury that cost him the past two games. His presence at another session keeps him on track for a possible return Monday night against Dallas. Dameon Pierce would then become mostly irrelevant from a fantasy football standpoint.

Saquon Barkley — Questionable

This marks Barkley's first official on-field work since he initially suffered a hamstring injury in Week 4 against the Rams. He consequently sat out Weeks 5 and 6, but his return to drills this week at least gives him a chance to suit up Monday versus the Cowboys. Barkley told Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer on Thursday that he wants to play in Week 7 but still needs to test out his hamstring over the next few days. Ultimately, Saturday's practice report will reveal Barkley's odds to return to action.

Saquon Barkley — Questionable

The Eagles signaled that Barkley was approaching a return to action by moving on from Carson Steele (shoulder, IR) and Jaydon Blue earlier this week. Mike Garafolo of NFL Network then reported Thursday morning that Barkley was expected to practice Thursday with the aim to play Monday against the Cowboys. While Barkley's activity level as he mixes back into drills isn't known yet, he appears to be trending in the right direction for Week 7 action.

Saquon Barkley — Questionable

Barkley has not practiced at all since injuring his hamstring in Week 4, but it appears he will be back out there Thursday. His return would be a welcome boost for an Eagles team that currently only has two other running backs available -- Dameon Pierce and Elijah Mitchell, who joined the practice squad earlier this week.

Eagles' Saquon Barkley ruled out; DeVonta Smith to return

Eagles RB Saquon Barkley has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Panthers with a hamstring injury, but it appears WR DeVonta Smith will return.

Saquon Barkley — Out

After missing a second straight week of practice due to a right hamstring injury, Barkley subsequently will be inactive for a second occasion this season. The Eagles placed Will Shipley (foot) on injured reserve Friday, so the backfield currently is occupied by Dameon Pierce and Carson Steele, the former of whom is the favorite to garner more of the workload for as long as Barkley is sidelined.

Saquon Barkley — Out

Barkley hasn't practiced the past two weeks and now appears likely to miss a second game. The Eagles will be short-handed, to say the least, with QB Jalen Hurts (blood clot) now joining the long list of starters to miss time this season. If Barkley is indeed inactive, Dameon Pierce will be the favorite to start at running back for Philadelphia.

Saquon Barkley — Questionable

Barkley's lack of activity so far this week isn't a surprise considering he hasn't been present for either of the Eagles' two practices. He thus has one more opportunity to attempt to mix into drills Friday, at which point the team may make a ruling on his status ahead of Sunday's game against the Panthers. If Barkley and fellow RB Will Shipley (foot) are sidelined this weekend, Dameon Pierce is the top candidate to pace Philadelphia's backfield, with Carson Steele also on hand for reps that linger.

Saquon Barkley — Questionable

As of Wednesday, Barkley has been listed as a non-participant on four consecutive injury reports due to a right hamstring issue, and he seems poised to make it five such listings once the Eagles post their second Week 6 report. With Will Shipley (foot) likely out for multiple weeks, Dameon Pierce seems set for a large workload out of the backfield Sunday against the Panthers, assuming Barkley doesn't put himself in a position to play.

Saquon Barkley — Questionable

Barkley has yet to mix into drills since suffering a right hamstring injury in the early stages of the Eagles' Week 4 loss to the Rams. Head coach Nick Sirianni expressed hope Monday that Barkley will return to action Sunday against the Panthers, suggesting it's possible he gets back on the practice field by Friday. Until that happens, though, Barkley likely is trending toward another absence in Week 6, which would leave Philadelphia's backfield in the hands of Dameon Pierce and Carson Steele with Will Shipley (foot) set for a multi-week stay on the sideline.

Saquon Barkley — Questionable

Barkley was inactive for this past Sunday's loss to the Jaguars in London due to a hamstring injury suffered one week prior, but head coach Nick Sirianni told Zach Berman of The Athletic on Monday that he's "hopeful" the running back will gain clearance to play in Week 6 against the Panthers. Assuming Barkley goes down as a DNP on Wednesday, he's not beginning the week on the right foot, but he'll still have two more chances to mix into drills Thursday and Friday.

Barkley was sidelined for Sunday's 19-17 loss to the Jaguars in London due to a right hamstring injury that he sustained during the Eagles' Week 4 loss to the Rams. Wednesday will be the first Eagles practice of Week 6 prep, and even a limited session would have Barkley trending toward a return against Carolina. Will Shipley was diagnosed with a partial tear of his plantar fascia following Sunday's game, and with Barkley and Tank Bigsby (abdomen, IR) both sidelined, that currently leaves Dameon Pierce and Carson Steele as the two healthy running backs on the Eagles' 53-man roster.

Barkley didn't practice this week in the wake of suffering a right hamstring injury this past Sunday against the Rams, so his lack of availability for Week 5 doesn't come as a surprise. With Tank Bigsby (abdomen) on injured reserve, it'll be the Will Shipley show out of the Eagles backfield Sunday, while Dameon Pierce also is on hand for RB reps that linger, and Jaydon Blue and Carson Steele are options to be elevated from the practice squad. Barkley's next chance for game action is Sunday, Oct. 18 versus the Panthers.

Barkley hasn't practiced this week and isn't likely to play against the Jaguars on Sunday, leaving Will Shipley, Dameon Pierce and Carson Steele as Philadelphia's backfield options for Week 5. Shipley is the favorite to start and get most of the snaps.

Saquon Barkley — Questionable

Barkley has yet to log any on-field work since tweaking his right hamstring on his fourth offensive snap this past Sunday against the Rams. Per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Barkley is considered week-to-week, and the Eagles can make a ruling on the running back's status for a Week 5 road matchup with the Jaguars on Friday's injury report. Will Shipley is poised for a workhorse role out of Philadelphia's backfield this weekend assuming Barkley indeed is ruled out.

Saquon Barkley — Questionable

Barkley appears as if he'll go down as a non-participant for a second session in a row to kick off Week 5 prep, something that'll be confirmed once the Eagles post Thursday's injury report. According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Barkley currently is viewed as week-to-week due to the hamstring issue that knocked him out of this past Sunday's game against the Rams after just four offensive snaps, so the running back's continued likely lack of activity isn't unexpected.

Saquon Barkley — Questionable

Barkley lasted just four offensive snaps before exiting this past Sunday's loss to the Rams in the first quarter due to a hamstring issue. Head coach Nick Sirianni remained mum Monday regarding Barkley's status, according to Zach Berman of The Athletic, though Ian Rapoport of NFL Network later reported that the running back is considered week-to-week with an injury that's not deemed to be long term. As a result, Barkley's lack of activity Wednesday isn't a shock, and if he indeed sits out Sunday's game against the Jaguars in London, he likely will pass off the No. 1 spot in the Eagles backfield to Will Shipley, with Dameon Pierce backing him up.

Saquon Barkley — Questionable

With Barkley already considered week-to-week coming out of Sunday's loss to the Rams, his absence from Wednesday's session is no surprise. Barkley should be considered closer to doubtful for Sunday's game against the Jaguars in London. Will Shipley and Dameon Pierce are currently in line to handle backfield duties after Tank Bigsby (abdomen) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday.

Saquon Barkley — Questionable

After exiting early in Sunday's loss to the Rams with the hamstring issue, Barkley now appears likely to miss at least some time. However, the Eagles -- and Barkley's fantasy managers -- can breathe a sign of relief since the injury doesn't appear likely to sideline the star running back for a substantial period of time. With Tank Bigsby (abdomen) expected to land on IR, Philadelphia's backfield is down to just Will Shipley among healthy options on the active roster. The Eagles will likely turn to one or more of Jaydon Blue, Dameon Pierce and Carson Steele from the practice squad for Week 5 and potentially beyond.

Saquon Barkley — Questionable

Barkley injured his hamstring in the opening minutes of Sunday's game and wasn't able to return to action. Tank Bigsby was the biggest beneficiary of Barkley's absence, but he exited late with an injury that will require core muscle surgery and a stint on injured reserve, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. With Barkley's status uncertain, the Eagles currently have one healthy running back (Will Shipley) on the active roster, while Jaydon Blue, Dameon Pierce and Carson Steele are options to be bumped up from the practice squad.

Saquon Barkley — Questionable

Barkley carried twice for eight yards and hauled in his lone target for a two-yard reception before departing Sunday's contest in the first quarter with the hamstring issue. Though injuries have now resulted in Barkley playing limited snaps in two of the Eagles' last three games, the team seems optimistic that his latest setback on the health front isn't anything major. His upcoming medical tests should provide a clearer picture of his health heading into a Week 5 matchup with the Jaguars next Sunday.

Eagles running back Saquon Barkley has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Rams with a hamstring injury.

Barkley tweaked his hamstring on a six-yard run in the first quarter, and the injury is severe enough for the star running back to be sidelined for the rest of Sunday's game. Tank Bigsby and Will Shipley will handle backfield duties the rest of the way in Barkley's absence.

Barkley walked slowly to the sideline after a six-yard run in the first quarter and visited the medical tent before making his way to the locker room. During Barkley's absence, Tank Bigsby and Will Shipley are the candidates for reps out of the Eagles backfield.

After a six-yard run on the Eagles' second possession, the aforementioned situation befell Barkley. For as long as Barkley is sidelined, Tank Bigsby and WIll Shipley will man Philadelphia's backfield.

Saquon Barkley — Active

Barkley was a rare bright spot for an otherwise moribund Eagles offense, showing no ill effects from the stinger that cost him substantial time in a Week 2 win over the Titans. The star running back got his night started on the right foot with a 12-yard run on Philadelphia's opening possession and a nine-yarder on the second drive that was wiped out by a holding penalty. Barkley would go on to add another four rushes of seven or more yards, including a game-long 17-yard scamper. Barkley has yet to top 15 carries in any of the first three games of the season, but he's been highly efficient while averaging 5.1 yards per carry and posting four runs of 10-plus yards overall. Barkley and the Eagles have a tall order on their Week 4 ledger, however, as the Rams come to town Sunday.
