Eagles

Goedert made his long-awaited return from injury in Week 10 against the Cowboys and wound up catching 2-of-3 passes for 25 yards and a touchdown. This ankle injury is a new one for the veteran tight end, so we’ll see what the team lists him as on Tuesday when they actually take to the practice field. Goedert will be a fringe TE1/TE2 if he can play against the Commanders on Thursday night.

Smith was a DNP for two of the team’s three practices last week but still suited up to play in Week 10 against the Cowboys. With Monday’s report being an estimation, fantasy managers shouldn’t read too much into this just yet. However, if he’s not able to get on the practice field before Thursday’s game, Smith could be at risk of missing an NFC East tilt with the Commanders.

The decision to open Mailata’s 21-day return window on a short week is an interesting one, but perhaps it’s a sign the Eagles believe Mailata could be ready for Thursday night’s game against the Commanders. The Eagles placed Mailata on injured reserve on October 18th after he suffered a hamstring injury in the team’s Week 6 win over the Browns. Mailata was playing at a high level before going down, boasting a 90.9 PFF pass-blocking grade while allowing just one sack on eight pressures.

It was a forgettable outing for Smith, whose 14 receiving yards marked his fewest Week 7 when he totaled negative two yards against the Giants. The good news is Smith has gone for 64 or more yards in six of eight games this season and has four touchdowns on the year. He has a good chance of bouncing back on Thursday night against the Commanders as a high-end WR2.

Goedert nearly had two touchdowns in this one, but his first end zone target ended up being the second interception of the season for Trevon Diggs. Goedert would eventually find the end zone for a 14-yard score late in the second quarter to give him his first touchdown of the season, but the veteran tight end didn’t exactly stuff the box score in this one. He exited briefly to the blue medical tent but returned soon after. Assuming he exited this game without any setbacks, Goedert will be a fringe TE1/TE2 on Thursday night against the Commanders.

Barkley was one yard short of the end zone in the first quarter only to watch Jalen Hurts score on his signature “Tush Push” on the following play. The Eagles’ RB1 was efficient on the ground but will leave fantasy managers wanting more in this scoreless outing. Sunday’s win over the Cowboys marks the fifth time this season that Barkley has failed to find the end zone, and his six rushing touchdowns are four fewer than what Hurts has on the season. He’ll look to rebound on Thursday night against the Commanders.

Brown didn’t find the end zone in this one, but he did make several big plays. Brown hauled in a 30-yard reception to end the first quarter but later topped that play with a 44-yard reception down the sideline to help set up another touchdown drive in a game that the Eagles dominated from start to finish. Brown will now prepare to face the Commanders on a short week, and will profile as a solid WR1 on Thursday night.

Hurts took five sacks in this one and lost a fumble, but with the Cowboys offense unable to muster any yards, there were plenty of chances for Hurts and the Eagles to rack up points. Hurts put the Eagles on the board with a one-yard touchdown run in the first quarter and found Dallas Goedert on a 14-yard touchdown pass in the second quarter. He would then connect with rookie Johnny Wilson for a five-yard score in the third and put a bow on things with a nine-yard touchdown run to give him his 10th rushing touchdown of the season. Hurts and the Eagles now prepare for a quick turnaround as they’re set to face the Commanders in Week 11. Hurts will be a high-end QB1 in what could be a high-scoring affair.

The Eagles will be at near full strength for Sunday’s NFC East matchup against the Cowboys. They’ll also have Dallas Goedert healthy for the first time in nearly a month. Things are looking good for the Birds as they aim to keep pace with the Commanders in the division.

Brown tweaked his knee in Week 9 and was unable to return after exiting in the third quarter. He participated in all three practices this week before being cleared and should be close to full strength heading into an NFC East showdown with Dallas. Brown hasn’t hit 100 yards in a game since Week 6, which was only his second triple-digit performance of the year. Despite injuries bogging down his season, Brown remains in the WR1 ranks for Week 10.
