Saquon Barkley Scores Touchdown in Low-Yardage Outing

Friday, September 5, 1:00 AM

Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley carried the ball 18 times for 60 rushing yards and one rushing touchdown during Thursday's season opener against the Dallas Cowboys. He also caught four of his five targets for an additional 24 receiving yards. The superstar running back wasn't as efficient as expected, especially against a defense that just lost run-stopper Micah Parsons. However, Barkley's volume remained appealing as he amassed 23 touches with a healthy blend of carries and catches. Plus, he added a touchdown, showcasing an ability to score that we've become quite familiar with. The veteran remains a mid-range RB1 option heading into a Super Bowl rematch against the Kansas City Chiefs.

CeeDee Lamb's 110-Yard Game Marred by Four Drops

Friday, September 5, 12:27 AM

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (undisclosed) converted 13 targets into seven receptions for 110 yards during Thursday's season opener against the Philadelphia Eagles. However, he also had four drops, including three on Dallas' final drive of the game. After a brief trip to the medical tent, Lamb emerged and appeared to take responsibility for his late-game miscues. Perhaps the drops can simply be blamed on early-season jitters, as Lamb has a track record of being a top receiver in the NFL. After all, he still managed to post 18 fantasy points in PPR leagues. Managers should remain confident that he'll be a dependable fantasy WR1 going forward.
