Saquon Barkley Has Another Massive Performance On Sunday

Sunday, December 22, 5:12 PM

Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley had 150 yards and two touchdowns off 29 carries in Sunday's narrow loss to the Washington Commanders. Jalen Hurts (concussion) got hurt in the first quarter and didn't return. As a result, Barkley got a season-high 29 touches. Unfortunately, it didn't help, with the Eagles dropping their third game of the 2024-25 campaign. Philadelphia is already going to the playoffs. But if Hurts can't suit up against the Cowboys in Week 17, the former Nittany Lion could be in line for another monster performance.

Antonio Gibson Highly Inefficient In Buffalo

Monday, December 23, 2:21 AM

New England Patriots running back Antonio Gibson rushed 10 times for just 28 yards during Sunday's Weke 16 loss to the Buffalo Bills. He also caught two passes for eight yards through the air. Gibson saw his largest workload since Week 6, but it was all for naught as he mustered just 2.8 yards per carry and was not much of a factor in the passing game. Along the way, Gibson went 0-for-3 on third- and fourth-down conversions, failing to pick up short yardage and move the chains in critical spots. The 26-year-old may continue to earn more snaps after teammate Rhamondre Stevenson coughed up his third fumble of the season on Sunday, but Gibson is still not a dependable fantasy option in leagues with 14 teams or less.
