The Eagles aren't expected to move Barkley ahead of the Nov. 10 trade deadline, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

Philadelphia's roster has been ravaged by injuries this season, and Barkley himself hasn't avoided health concerns, with two contests where he's played above 70 percent of snaps, three appearances in which he made early exits and two missed games to date. He thus has been capped to just 49 touches for 261 yards from scrimmage and one rushing touchdown, but general manager Howie Roseman won't consider trading Barkley ahead of the NFL's trade deadline. As for Barkley's Week 8 prospects, he doesn't have a designation for Sunday night's game at Washington and has only Jaydon Blue and Elijah Mitchell available behind him, so a workhorse role could be in the cards.

Pickens (shoulder/hamstring) is expected to play Sunday against the Cardinals, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Pickens was limited by dueling shoulder and hamstring injuries during the entirety of Week 8 prep, but he appears as if he'll avoid the Cowboys' inactive list approximately 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. kickoff. He's so far put together a 37-485-2 line on 58 targets through the first seven contests of the campaign.

Ridley (hip) is in line to play in Sunday's game against the Bengals, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

After sitting out in Week 7 due to a hip injury, Ridley kicked off Week 8 prep with back-to-back limited sessions before upgrading to full Friday and entering the weekend listed as questionable. Assuming he's deemed active about 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff, he'll be working in a Titans receiving corps without top WR Carnell Tate (shoulder) for the first time this season.

Allen is slated to be the Jets' starting running back Sunday against the Raiders, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

For a second week in a row, fellow RB Breece Hall (quadriceps) was listed as questionable to play, but he was inactive in Week 7, and his status remains up in the air for Week 8. Rapoport's report indicates Allen will continue to run ahead of Hall if the latter is active, but if Hall isn't available Allen then will have most of the Jets backfield to himself for a fifth straight game. In the first four, Allen combined for 83 touches for 421 yards from scrimmage and one rushing TD.

Meyers (hamstring/ankle) is expected to play in Sunday's game against the Colts, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Meyers dealt with a hamstring injury during Week 8 prep, logging limited sessions Wednesday and Thursday before sitting out Friday's practice entirely. Assuming he's deemed active approximately 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff, he'll be looking to build upon the season-high 83 receiving yards he put up in the Jaguars' last game in Week 6 against the Texans in London.

Waddle (chest) is trending in a positive direction for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Waddle made a late exit from the Broncos' Week 7 win at Arizona due to a chest injury, which held him out of practice Wednesday before limited sessions Thursday and Friday left him questionable for Week 8 action. He may need to go through a pregame warmup unscathed to be available Sunday, something that'll be confirmed about 90 minutes before a 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff.

Cross (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Bears, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Cross was held out of practice all week due to an ankle injury he suffered during the Seahawks' Week 7 win over the Chiefs. Josh Jones will likely start at left tackle in the absence of Cross, whose next chance to play is Week 9 against the Cardinals on Sunday, Nov. 8.

The Broncos signed Rapp off the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.

The addition of Rapp gives the Broncos more depth in the secondary, and he could see some work on defense against the Chiefs on Sunday due to the absence of Talanoa Hufanga (ankle). Rapp played in both Weeks 6 and 7 and logged eight tackles (two solo) over those two appearances.

Bennett (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Commanders.

Bennett continues to recover from a knee injury that he sustained in training camp in August. He's not quite ready to return from IR, so his next chance to play is Week 9 against the Giants on Sunday, Nov. 8.

Williams (ankle) will remain on injured reserve and has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Tori McElhany of the Falcons' official site reports.

Williams has been sidelined the entire regular season due to an ankle injury that he picked up in early September. He logged a trio of full practices during Week 8 prep, but he's not quite ready to return from IR, so his next opportunity to play is Week 9 against the Bengals on Sunday, Nov. 8.
