Tank Bigsby Unlikely To Have Big Enough Role Yet For Eagles

Saturday, September 13, 12:49 AM

The Philadelphia Eagles just traded for Tank Bigsby on Monday, and the former Jaguar is currently listed as the third running back on the depth chart. He was far outpaced by Travis Etienne Jr. in Jacksonville's first game, and was splitting touches with Bhayshul Tuten as well. Bigsby only managed 12 yards on five carries against the Panthers in Week 1, which clearly didn't impress the Jaguars front office enough to keep him on the roster. Eagles backup RB Will Shipley (rib) is officially out for the upcoming contest against Kansas City, clearing the runway a bit for Bigsby, but probably not enough for any real fantasy production. Shipley and AJ Dillon combined for 13 snaps on offense against Dallas last week, while Saquon Barkley totaled 50. With a star like Barkley ahead of him, Bigsby should not be considered for lineups in Week 2.

Jaydon Blue Expected to Make Season Debut

Friday, October 3, 3:00 PM

Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Jaydon Blue, who has been a healthy inactive for each of the team's first four games, is expected to make his season debut on Sunday. Mile Sanders (knee/ankle) has not been practicing this week, and should he miss the team's Week 5 matchup with the Jets, Blue would be next in line to handle primary backup responsibilities behind surprise workhorse Javonte Williams. Where Blue could see an immediate impact is in the kicking game, where his 4.38-second 40 time makes him a considerable threat in space. While he's not yet a flex-worthy play for fantasy managers, he's worth holding onto through bye weeks wherever possible, as the undeniable skillset that made him a fifth-round pick, despite limited college production, could see him carve out a functional role moving forward.
