Tank Bigsby News
Tuesday, October 6, 7:08 PM
Philadelphia Eagles running back Tank Bigsby (core) has officially been placed on injured reserve. This move was widely expected, according to a report from NFL.com's Ian Rapoport, but the Eagles made it official on Tuesday. Bigsby picked up a core muscle injury during the final minutes of Sunday's Week 4 loss against the Los Angeles Rams. He suffered the injury while handling a larger workload (48% snap share, 14 carries, and 55 rushing yards) in the aftermath of an injury to teammate Saquon Barkley (hamstring). Landing on IR will require Bigsby to miss a minimum of four games, but Rapoport reported that the 24-year-old will undergo surgery and has a timeline closer to six weeks. With Bigsby and Barkley both sidelined, the injury-plagued Eagles will now turn to Will Shipley to lead their backfield against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 5.

Tyrone Tracy Jr. News
Friday, October 2, 9:45 PM
New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. will head into Sunday's matchup against the Arizona Cardinals injury-free after a full practice Friday. The third-year back out of Purdue was bothered by a knee issue that forced him to miss Wednesday's practice. However, he upgraded his participation each of the next two days as the team preps for the visiting Cardinals. Following a subpar preseason performance, Tracy has fallen out of favor with the Giants' coaching staff, totaling three carries for 17 yards across four snaps. He appears to be a distant fourth option behind backfield mates Najee Harris, Cam Skattebo, and Devin Singletary, and can be safely avoided by fantasy managers in all formats.
