Eagles' Saquon Barkley: Tops 100 yards in playoff loss
Saquon Barkley rushed 26 times for 106 yards and caught three of six targets for 25 yards in Sunday's 23-19 wild-card game loss to the 49ers.Barkley ripped off a 29-yard run on Philadelphia's second offensive play to help set up a one-yard Dallas Goedert rushing touchdown on the team's first drive, and the star running back topped 100 yards on the ground after doing so in only three of 16 regular-season games. Despite Barkley's best efforts, he suffered his first playoff loss in an Philadelphia Eagles uniform after winning Super Bowl LIX in his first season with the team. Barkley remains one of the league's best running backs and should maintain a workhorse role for the Eagles in his age-29 season.

Eagles' Saquon Barkley: Held to 68 yards against Bills
Saquon Barkley rushed 19 times for 68 yards and was not targeted as a receiver in Sunday's 13-12 win over Buffalo.Barkley failed to break away from the Bills' athletic linebacking corps and was held to 3.6 yards per tote Sunday. The 28-year-old failed to extend his modest scoring streak to four games, culminating in a mediocre fantasy performance by the superstar's standards. It was also the first time this season that Barkley did not receive a target, but the workhorse still commanded 19 of Philadelphia's 23 backfield carries. Barkley and his 280-1,140-7 rushing line will attempt to finish off a solid, yet underwhelming, regular season against the Commanders in Week 18.

Eagles' Saquon Barkley: Back at practice
Saquon Barkley (stinger) is participating in Wednesday's practice, Andrew DiCecco of InsideTheBirds.com reports.Barkley was held out of Tuesday's walk-through session due to the stinger he picked up during Philadelphia's blowout win over the Raiders in Week 15, so it's encouraging to see him back on the practice field. The veteran running back has scored in back-to-back games and handled 20 or more carries in four of six games since the Philadelphia Eagles' bye, and he's set for a favorable matchup against Washington's vulnerable run defense Saturday. If he's able to upgrade to full practice reps Thursday, Barkley could avoid an injury designation entirely for Week 16.

Eagles' Saquon Barkley: Busts out of slump with huge TD
Saquon Barkley took 20 carries for 122 yards and a touchdown while failing to bring in either of his targets in Monday's 22-19 overtime loss to the Chargers.Barkley snapped out his recent funk in a big way when he took a pitch early in the fourth quarter down the sidelines for 52 yards to give Philadelphia its first lead of the evening. It was the second time this season that the star running back eclipsed 100 rushing yards, a feat he accomplished an astonishing 14 times (including the playoffs) during his impressive 2024 campaign. While Barkley's production has dropped off following the Philadelphia Eagles' Super Bowl run, he has still managed to generate over 1,000 yards from scrimmage with seven touchdowns for fantasy managers in 13 starts this year. Barkley will look to add to those totals in a favorable home matchup against the Raiders in Week 15.

Eagles' Saquon Barkley: Struggles continue
Saquon Barkley rushed the ball 13 times for 56 yards in Friday's 24-15 loss to the Bears. He did not record a catch on two targets.Barkley was fairly efficient on the ground in a change from his recent form, as six of his 13 carries went for at least five yards. However, with the Philadelphia Eagles trailing for much of the game, Barkley saw limited volume, leading to a muted stat line. He also failed to record a reception in a game for the first time this season. Overall, this marked Barkley's ninth performance in 12 games this season with 60 rushing yards or fewer, and he hasn't found the end zone since Week 8.
