Saquon Barkley News
Wednesday, November 4, 11:27 AM
Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley (hamstring/back) was not spotted at practice on Wednesday, per Brooks Kubena of The Athletic. Barkley has been battling injury issues for multiple weeks. The 29-year-old has played a limited snap share in each of the Eagles' last two games, but he's been relatively productive in his opportunities, recording 20 carries for 92 yards and two touchdowns over the last two weeks. Given that Barkley has been on the field for the Eagles lately, he may just be getting a rest/injury management day off on Wednesday. If Barkley has suffered a setback, Eagles backup running backs Elijah Mitchell and Jaydon Blue could be in line for increased workloads in Week 9 against the New York Giants.

Tony Pollard News
Sunday, November 1, 5:15 PM
Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard rushed 21 times for 117 yards (5.6 yards per attempt) and two touchdowns, while adding three receptions for 20 yards (6.7 yards per reception), in a heartbreaking 43-36 loss in overtime to the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 8. Pollard did have one fumble, but the Titans did not lose the ball on the play. Pollard and quarterback Cam Ward were the only two players to carry the ball for the Titans on Sunday. With the loss, the Titans fell to 1-7 on the 2026 season and will have a bye week in Week 9. However, Pollard has been a bright spot for the team, rushing for 595 yards on 133 carries (4.5 yards per attempt) and six touchdowns through eight games. Pollard has also tallied 14 receptions for 70 yards (5.0 yards per catch). After the bye week, Pollard and the Titans have a matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars' stout rushing defense, but Pollard remains a high-volume running back who should be started.
