Eagles' Kenneth Gainwell: Just 10 yards on six touches
Kenneth Gainwell rushed five times for nine yards and added a one-yard reception in Sunday's 28-23 win over the Jaguars.Gainwell saw his second-most touches of the season but did very little with them, gaining a total of just 10 yards. He's averaging just 19.8 yards on 4.5 touches per game this season. Saquon Barkley dealt with back tightness during the Week 9 win but did not appear to be meaningfully impacted and is expected to be fine for Week 10 against the Cowboys, so expect Gainwell's role to remain limited.

Eagles' Kenneth Gainwell: Five carries in 20-point win
Kenneth Gainwell carried five times for 19 yards in Sunday's 37-17 win over the Bengals.Gainwell had just one carry until the second half of the fourth quarter but got a handful of opportunities late after the Philadelphia Eagles had put the game out of reach. The Eagles have won their last two games by a combined 45 points, resulting in Gainwell's two biggest workloads of the year, but don't be surprised if he's limited to two or three touches the next time the team is in a close game.

Eagles' Kenneth Gainwell: Racks up yards in garbage time
Kenneth Gainwell carried the ball 13 times for 56 yards and caught one pass for 11 yards in Sunday's 28-3 win over the Giants.Gainwell's 14 touches for 67 total yards in Week 7 were more than the 11 touches for 62 yards he managed across the first six weeks combined, but don't count on a similar workload going forward. The Philadelphia Eagles were able to rest most of their starters for the entire fourth quarter after getting out to a big lead, but Saquon Barkley should resume taking nearly all of the running back touches next week in Cincinnati, assuming the game stays close.

With just 11 total touches in five games this season, his workload remains far too small for him to have much fantasy relevance.

Eagles' Kenneth Gainwell: Season-high nine yards
Kenneth Gainwell rushed twice for a season-high nine yards in Sunday's loss to the Bucs.Gainwell's 24 offensive snaps easily outpaced his previous season high of 14, but he remains a very minor part of the team's gameplan. Gainwell has received exactly two touches in all four games so far, and it would seemingly take an injury to Saquon Barkley for that to change.

Eagles' Kenneth Gainwell: No carries in Week 3
Kenneth Gainwell did not carry the ball in Week 3 against the Saints, though he did catch two passes on three targets for 12 yards.Gainwell averaged between 3.1 and 5.3 carries per game over his first three seasons as an Eagle, but there's been no room for him in the gameplan since the arrival of Saquon Barkley. While Barkley sits second in the league with 63 carries, Gainwell has rushed just three times all year.

Eagles' Kenneth Gainwell: Two carries in Week 2
Kenneth Gainwell rushed twice for six yards in Monday's 22-21 loss to the Falcons.Gainwell was on the field for just seven of the Philadelphia Eagles' 71 offensive snaps Monday while teammate Saquon Barkley handled 64 snaps. The 25-year-old has been an afterthought for much of the first two games with Barkley flashing his impressive playmaking ability so far in 2024. Barring injury, Gainwell should continue to see limited action when the Eagles visit the Saints in Week 3.

Eagles' Kenneth Gainwell: Minor role in Week 1
Kenneth Gainwell finished Friday's Week 1 win over the Packers with one carry for two yards and one catch for 10 yards.Gainwell averaged a career-high 7.1 touches per game last season, but his role is more likely to shrink than grow this year after the Philadelphia Eagles added Saquon Barkley in free agency. It would take an injury to Barkley for Gainwell to earn a fantasy-relevant workload. Gainwell does at least remain the backup to roster for now for those wanting coverage for Barkley, as he played 14 offensive snaps to Will Shipley's four.

Eagles' Kenneth Gainwell: Gets start in preseason win
Kenneth Gainwell carried the ball four times for 23 yards in Friday's 16-13 preseason win over the Ravens.Reporting earlier in the day suggested that Saquon Barkley and the Philadelphia Eagles' first-team offense would get a series at the beginning of the game, but instead Gainwell got the start in the backfield and played the first handful of snaps before giving way to Will Shipley on Philadelphia's second possession. Gainwell's experience in Nick Sirianni's system has him penciled into the No. 2 spot on the running back depth chart behind Barkley, but the team used a fourth-round pick in this year's draft on Shipley, and the rookie found the end zone Friday as he builds a case to take over the top backup job.

Eagles' Kenneth Gainwell: Taking some first-team reps
Kenneth Gainwell is getting some first-team reps early in training camp, Brandon Lee Gowton of Bleeding Green reports.It's not exactly surprising that a fourth-year pro with 1,071 career snaps on offense is starting camp ahead of rookie fourth-round pick Will Shipley on the depth chart. The question is whether Gainwell can hold the youngster off all summer for a backup role that doesn't figure to entail much playing time so long as Saquon Barkley is healthy.
