Jalen Carter Won't Play in Week 14 After Having Shoulder Surgeries

Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle Jalen Carter (shoulders) will not play on Monday night in Week 14 against the hosting Los Angeles Chargers after undergoing a procedure on Monday on both of his shoulders, sources tell Adam Schefter of ESPN. Carter is undergoing treatment on both of his shoulders and will be considered week-to-week. The former ninth overall pick in 2023 wants to be as close to 100% as possible for a playoff run. Carter is not expected to go on Injured Reserve. The 24-year-old interior defensive lineman has recorded 32 tackles, two sacks, and six pass breakups in his 11 games played for Philly this year. With Carter out for potentially a couple of games, the Eagles will look for Byron Young to step up on their D-line. Carter's injury will be good news for a struggling Chargers' offensive line, although they could still have plenty of issues protecting quarterback Justin Herbert (hand) on Monday night.

Tank Bigsby Has High-End Handcuff Appeal in Philadelphia

Across 11 games since being acquired by the Philadelphia Eagles, running back Tank Bigsby has recorded just 18 carries for 164 yards. As long as star Eagles running back Saquon Barkley remains healthy, there appears to be a firm ceiling on Bigsby's playing time and opportunity for touches. The 24-year-old has logged double-digit offensive snaps in just one game this season. However, Bigsby's average of 9.1 rushing yards per attempt is a clear indicator of his significant production upside if Barkley were to suffer an injury. In a larger, 168-carry sample size across 16 games with the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2024, Bigsby averaged 4.6 yards per attempt and scored seven rushing touchdowns. Bigsby's never provided much production as a receiver, so fellow Eagles back Will Shipley would likely handle passing-downs work even if Barkley were to go down. Still, Bigsby is a high-end handcuff option who is worth rostering in fantasy leagues with 12 or more teams heading into a Week 14 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers.

Eagles to Continue Limiting Jalen Hurts' Rushing Opportuninities?

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts has run the ball at a much lower clip this year than in previous seasons, and that could continue to be the case in 2025. "We're always thinking about how to protect Jalen and make sure that he is healthy for the long haul. Different plans have different reasons of why you run different things, and like I said, we will do everything we need to do to help this offense get rolling," head coach Nick Sirianni said when asked if Hurts' rushing attempts are down because he doesn't want to do it as much. Through 12 games this year, Hurts has 84 rushing attempts for 329 yards and eight TDs. In comparison, he ran the ball 150 times for 630 yards and 14 rushing scores in 15 regular-season games in 2024. Philly is near the bottom of the league with 108.5 rushing yards per game this year, but it sounds like they will continue to limit Hurts' rushing opportunities as they prioritize his health. Despite not having as many rushing opportunities, Hurts has been the QB5 in overall fantasy points thanks to 27 total touchdowns (19 passing, eight rushing).

Jalen Hurts has Another Lackluster Performance in Loss to Bears

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts was unable to turn the team's offensive woes around in their 24-15 loss to the visiting Chicago Bears on Black Friday, going 19-for-34 passing for 230 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception. Hurts ran the ball four times for 31 yards and also lost a fumble on a tush push. He was not sacked at all in the game. The 27-year-old only threw for 57 yards in the first half against Chicago, but he was able to pick things up after halftime, with both of his touchdown passes going to receiver A.J. Brown -- one on a 33-yard strike. The Eagles' offense has left a lot to be desired for everyone involved in 2025. However, it could be worse for Hurts' fantasy managers, as he has thrown for three touchdowns and run two in over the last two games. The two-time Pro Bowler will take on the Los Angeles Chargers on Monday night in Week 14.

A.J. Brown Goes Over 100 Yards Again, Scores Twice on Friday

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown is on a heater. After publicly complaining about his role in what has been a lackluster offense in 2025, Brown has now gone over 100 yards receiving in each of the last two games while scoring three times. In the team's 24-15 loss to the visiting Chicago Bears on Black Friday, the 28-year-old caught a season-high 10 passes on 12 targets (also a season high) for a season-high 132 yards and two touchdowns. Philly's offense didn't look great once again outside of Brown's big game against Chicago. For the time being, he has returned to the WR1 role in Philly over DeVonta Smith, but that could easily change heading into the team's Week 14 tilt on the road on Monday Night Football against the Chargers. Fantasy managers have to like the way things are trending with Brown at the moment, though, as we get closer to the fantasy postseason.

Tank Bigsby Doesn't Garner Standalone Value in Week 13

Philadelphia Eagles running back Tank Bigsby won't be worthy of a fantasy start in Week 13's meeting with the visiting Chicago Bears. The third-year pro was traded to Philadelphia at the beginning of the season to play second fiddle in the team's backfield behind teammate Saquon Barkley. However, since taking over the job from A.J. Dillon, Bigsby has racked up just 18 carries and 164 yards for Philadelphia -- all of which have come since Week 8. As it stands, fantasy managers can safely avoid the Auburn product in all leagues sans deep dynasty formats, as the path to him finding fantasy relevance outside of an injury to the player ahead of him on the depth chart is narrow.

DeVonta Smith Off the Injury Report, Cleared for Friday's Game vs. the Bears

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith (shoulder, chest, illness) is off the injury report and is all systems go for Friday's game against the Chicago Bears. Smith was a non-participant in Tuesday and Wednesday's practice, but practiced in full on Thursday. The 27-year-old has been hot recently, topping 80 receiving yards or more in three of his last five games. Overall, he has caught 55 passes for 754 yards and three touchdowns over 11 weeks. The Bears' defense is getting healthier and is expected to get standout defensive back Jaylon Johnson (groin) back on Friday. Despite Johnson's return, Smith is a low-end WR2 in fantasy against the Bears and is ranked 22nd among all wideouts heading into Week 13.

Jake Elliott Back to Being Unattractive Option

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott just gave fantasy managers whiplash, going from his highest-volume performance of the season in Week 11 to missing his lone field goal attempt in Week 12. Elliott will kick at home in his upcoming game against the Bears, who give up the sixth-most points per game (26.5) in the NFL this season. While Chicago's defense should allow for plenty of scoring opportunities for Philly, Elliott has gotten just 14 tries at field goals this year and missed three of them. He isn't given consistent chances and isn't exactly automatic when his number is finally called. There are better kickers to roster in Week 13.

Dallas Goedert is Losing Fantasy Trust After Rough Stretch

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert let down once again last week, tallying his fifth straight performance with fewer than 50 yards. In fact, Goedert has only eclipsed that number once this season-in Week 6 when he finished with 110 yards. His once-remarkable touchdown streak now feels like a distant memory as he has failed to find the end zone in three consecutive games. What's also concerning is his lack of targets; Goedert has recorded three or fewer looks in three of his last five outings. He has become a rather untrustworthy player lately, so it's difficult to be optimistic about him this week, even against a Bears defense giving up the seventh-most fantasy points to tight ends. Goedert has some work to do to be considered elite again, and for now is only valuable if he starts seeing more red zone work. He's a high-risk, high-reward TE2 in Week 13.

Darius Cooper Looking to Build Off of First Career Catches

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Darius Cooper recorded his first career stats this past week against the Dallas Cowboys, catching both of his targets for a total of seven yards. The undrafted rookie had his second-most snaps in a game this season, being on the field for 13 offensive plays. While these still aren't numbers that jump off the stat sheet, it does show that Cooper has the potential to see some more looks over the course of the final six games of the regular season. He's played with the first team and has some trust from Jalen Hurts. And now with DeVonta Smith on the injury report, this could be the perfect storm for Cooper to show more of what he has to offer. Hopes shouldn't get too high, as he's still not worthy of a fantasy roster spot, but it will be interesting to watch how Cooper gets involved the rest of the way.

DeVonta Smith a Strong Option if Healthy

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith (shoulder/chest/illness) did not participate in Wednesday's practice, making it the second consecutive day that he's missed. Smith was able to find his rhythm again last week, being targeted 11 times for six catches and 89 yards, so it would be an unfortunate shot to any momentum he's built if he's forced to sit out. If he plays against Chicago on Friday, he'll be up against a defense that has allowed 22 receiving touchdowns in 11 games. Given their track record this season, you never know when an Eagles receiver might boom or bust, but it seems like the corps as a whole has been hitting its stride recently. Consider Smith a low-end WR2/FLEX option if he's available.

A.J. Brown has All the Momentum Heading into Week 13

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown caught his fourth touchdown of the season and his first in three weeks last Sunday against the Cowboys, while also setting a season high for receptions (eight) and eclipsing 100 yards for the third time this year. Brown has racked up 21 targets over his last two outings, and could be in for another big day this week with DeVonta Smith (shoulder/chest/illness) possibly being sidelined. Even if his fellow star receiver is out there, Brown looked like the WR1 he's expected to be versus Dallas and should continue this momentum. He'll face the Bears on Friday, whose defense allows the 11th-most fantasy points to WRs this season. This may be the start of a late-season surge for Brown, and he should be considered a mid-level WR2 in Week 13.

Tank Bigsby Have More Opportunities on Friday

Philadelphia Eagles running back Tank Bigsby could get his breakout moment this Friday if Saquon Barkley (groin) is unable to suit up. Bigsby is the only Philly RB besides Barkley to get any carries in the last two weeks, and would likely get his number called as the next man up should the Eagles' primary backfield option miss the game against Chicago. While the former Jaguar hasn't seen a ton of action since being traded to Philadelphia earlier this season, he has shown promise with his limited opportunities. In 10 games, Bigsby has carried the ball 18 times for 164 yards for an average of 9.1 yards per carry. The Eagles offensive live is always going to be a huge benefactor to whoever gets the handoffs, and fellow RB Will Shipley would probably be used more in the passing game. If he does get the starting nod, Bigsby should be seen as at least a mid-level RB2 against a Bears defense allowing the 14th-most fantasy points to RBs.

Saquon Barkley Primed for Bounce Back After Uncharacteristic Week?

Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley (groin) was limited at practice on Wednesday. Barkley had his worst performance on the ground so far this season last week in a loss to the Dallas Cowboys, finishing with 22 yards on 10 attempts. Luckily for fantasy managers, he was able to find success in the passing game by catching seven balls for 52 yards, further proving how he can be efficient in more ways than one. Barkley shouldn't have the same run struggles on Friday as he faces a lackluster Bears defense allowing 138.1 rushing yards per game this year. Philly's offense fell stagnant in the second half against Dallas and is unlikely to do the same in what will be a hotly contested battle atop the NFC. Expect Barkley to get back to around 20 carries and be far more productive running the ball this week, and probably get a decent amount of targets through the air as well. His injury on a short week is something to keep an eye on, but if he's good to go he's a solid RB1.

Jalen Hurts Slated for Solid Air and Ground Attack

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts' Week 12 game against the Cowboys was the second time this season he's had multiple rushing touchdowns in a single game-the other being in Week 1 against the Cowboys. He could resort to using his legs some more in his upcoming meeting with the Bears on Friday, as Chicago allows the fifth-most rushing yards per game this season (138.1). The Bears are also tied for the third-most passing touchdowns allowed, giving up 22 in 11 contests. Hurts may be without star receiver DeVonta Smith (shoulder/chest/illness) this week, but he tends to spread the ball around anyway. In an effort to bounce back from the recent loss and with the high stakes of being up against a top threat in the NFC, Hurts should be on his A-game in this favorable matchup. He's a high-end QB1 in Week 13.

Saquon Barkley Limited Again on Wednesday

Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley (groin) was listed as limited in Wednesday's practice, according to the team's official website. For the second straight day, Barkley was a limited participant as he manages a groin injury that he initially tweaked during the Eagles' Week 8 win over the New York Giants. The star running back hasn't missed any time because of the injury, but it's something that he and the team are managing on a short practice week as the Eagles host the Chicago Bears on Black Friday. Barkley should be good to go for that game and could clear the injury report by Thursday. It's been a disappointing season for the 28-year-old after his historic 2024 campaign, and he is coming off his worst rushing performance of the season in Week 12 against the Cowboys, rushing for just 22 yards on 10 carries, but added seven catches (eight targets) for 52 yards as a receiver. Tank Bigsby would be in line for a bigger role if Barkley were to miss Friday's matchup.

DeVonta Smith Missing From Practice Again on Wednesday

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith (chest, shoulder) is missing a second straight day of practice on Wednesday with chest and shoulder injuries, according to Jeff Neiburg of the Philadelphia Inquirer. Smith played 95% of the offensive snaps in the Week 12 loss to the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday and caught six of his 11 targets for 89 yards in a busy day, but he's now in danger of sitting out on a short week this Friday against the Chicago Bears. The 27-year-old will need to get back on the practice field on Thursday to have a shot at playing in Week 13. If Smith is inactive or limited at all this week, A.J. Brown figures to be peppered with targets. Tight end Dallas Goedert would also have a much higher fantasy ceiling. Jahan Dotson would most likely operate as the team's WR2.

Saquon Barkley Limited With Groin Injury on Tuesday

Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley (groin) was limited in Tuesday's practice due to a groin injury, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Barkley originally tweaked his groin in Week 8 against the New York Giants, but he hasn't missed any time because of it. The Eagles are likely just managing the injury and being cautious on a short week with the team facing the Chicago Bears on Black Friday in Week 13. Barkley still has two more days to return to a full practice, so he could be removed from the final injury report by Thursday. The 28-year-old has disappointed in 2025 in comparison to his monster 2024 campaign. Barkley had only 10 carries for 22 yards in the Week 12 loss to the Dallas Cowboys after seeing 20-plus carries in each of the previous two games. He salvaged his fantasy line, though, with a season-high seven catches for 52 yards on eight targets. If Barkley were to miss Friday's game, Tank Bigsby would likely see most of Philly's backfield touches.

DeVonta Smith Listed as DNP on Tuesday

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith (chest, shoulder) was listed as a non-participant in Tuesday's walkthrough practice due to chest and shoulder injuries, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. Smith's status bears watching on a short week when the team takes on the Chicago Bears on Friday. He played 95% of the offensive snaps in the Week 12 loss to the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday and had a big game, catching six of his 11 targets for 89 yards. If Smith is a DNP again on Wednesday, fantasy managers should actually be worried that he might be in danger of missing Week 13 action. If Smith is limited in any way or ruled out entirely against Chicago later this week, Jahan Dotson would be in line for WR2 duties in Philly behind A.J. Brown. Smith has only found the end zone three times in 11 games in 2025, adding 55 receptions on 78 targets for 754 yards. He's on track for the third 1,000-yard season in his fifth NFL campaign.

Tank Bigsby Worth a Roster Spot in Fantasy Football?

Philadelphia Eagles running back Tank Bigsby has settled in as the team's RB2 behind starter Saquon Barkley. However, that doesn't mean the 24-year-old former Jaguars RB should be rostered in 12-team fantasy leagues for the time being. Bigsby played only three offensive snaps in Sunday's loss to the Dallas Cowboys and had one carry for eight yards. In his 10 games since joining the Eagles this year, Bigsby has only 18 carries for 164 yards in a backup role. Philly's offense has been sluggish, too, which hasn't helped Bigsby's cause for more work in a complementary role. Going into a Week 13 game against the Chicago Bears this Friday, the Eagles rank 21st in the league in rushing yards per game (110.5). Unless Barkley misses time with an injury, Bigsby can probably be left to the waiver wire in shallow fantasy formats.
