Wednesday, September 2, 5:06 PM

According to Adam Schefter, Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley is unharmed after an attempted burglary of his home on Saturday. Barkley's home was broken into after 5:00 AM EST on Saturday, according to the Tredyffrin Township Police Department. Barkley and his family were home at the time of the break-in, but thankfully, no one was hurt. No arrests have been made, and the suspects left the location before the authorities arrived. The incident remains under investigation, but that shouldn't impact Barkley's participation in training camp.

Ashton Jeanty A Risky Pick Now With Injury, Emergence of Mike Washington Jr.

Saturday, September 5, 7:01 AM

Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty suffered a sprained ankle in the preseason rather than a more serious injury that was feared and ESPN Insider Adam Schefter said he has a "legitimate chance to play in Week 1 against the Miami Dolphins." However with the injury and the emergence of backup running back Mike Washington Jr. in camp there is real worry in selecting Jeanty in the late first round which was where he was projected prior to the injury. The good news is it was only a sprained ankle, the bad news is there could be more of a split in carries than originally thought with Washington. Washington has looked good in camp and is averaging 7.3 yards per carry in preseason games. General manager John Spytek has praised Washington this fall, "We have an expectation that he's going to help us win football games this year," Spytek told Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com.
