Saquon Barkley

PHL • RB • #26

Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni said the team is “gonna rest some guys” in Week 18, including Saquon Barkley.

Barkley’s regular season will end with 2,005 rushing yards and 13 rush touchdowns, as he’ll fall 101 yards shy of setting the single-season rushing yards record set by Eric Dickerson in 1984. It’s a tough pill for Barkley and fans to swallow, but the Eagles secured the NFC East title in last week’s win over the Cowboys while also cementing their spot in the playoff race. Kenneth Gainwell could make for an interesting Week 18 streamer for fantasy managers still playing who are looking for help at running back, while rookie Will Shipley could also see some run if he’s able to clear concussion protocol.
