Philadelphia Eagles

Elijah Moore

WR

Week 9 was the Eagles' first game with Joe Milton as the starter, with Tanner McKee relegated to backup duties. Milton completed 18 of his 34 passes, and his lone connection with Moore resulted in a three-yard loss. The Eagles are on a bye for Week 10, and Moore's role on the offense would evaporate if one or both of DeVonta Smith (hamstring) or Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) was cleared to play in Week 11 against the Steelers on Sunday, Nov. 22.

Hollywood Brown

WR

Brown logged 35 offensive snaps, well behind fellow wideouts Makai Lemon and Darius Cooper (65 snaps apiece). The Eagles were without both DeVonta Smith hamstring) and Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) for the third straight week, but Brown hasn't done much in their absences, tallying just five catches for 63 yards on eight targets during that span. Philadelphia is on bye for Week 10, and if Smith and/or Wicks return for Week 11 versus Pittsburgh, Brown's role figures to decrease.

Darius Cooper

WR

With DeVonta Smith (hamstring) and Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) still out, Cooper played more than 90 percent of the offensive snaps for the third straight game. He's done very little with that playing time, producing five catches for 61 yards during that span. Cooper is well off the fantasy radar until he shows something in the box score, and that's if Smith and Wicks remain sidelined.

Arnold Ebiketie

LB

Earlier Tuesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network relayed that the Eagles agreed to send Ebiketie to the Bengals in exchange for a 2027 sixth-round pick. The trade wasn't cancelled due to concerns over Ebiketie's physical; instead, the Bengals opted to call it off since they would have lost a third-round compensatory pick if the deal was completed, per Rapoport. The Eagles could still look to move Ebiketie elsewhere prior to Tuesday's deadline, but barring another trade, he'll suit up for Philadelphia in its Week 10 game against Pittsburgh.

Elijah Mitchell

RB

Mitchell has been elevated each of the past three weeks and has logged at least six touches in every game during that span. During this past Sunday's 19-11 loss to the Giants, he recorded six yards on three carries and caught three passes for 20 yards on four targets. The Eagles would need to sign Mitchell to the 53-man roster in order for him to be eligible to play in their next game, which will be Nov. 22 versus Pittsburgh following a Week 10 bye. That opportunity for Mitchell could depend on whether Tank Bigsby (abdomen) and/or Will Shipley (foot) return from injured reserve.

Jake Elliott

PK

Elliott's kick was good from 45 yards, but with Joe Milton making his first start at quarterback and without DeVonta Smith (hamstring) and Dontayvion Wicks (ankle), the Philly offense struggled to move the ball and score points. Elliott is not an exciting fantasy kicker on a tanking Eagles team.

Eli Stowers

TE

The rookie tight end ran just four routes on Joe Milton's 48 dropbacks against the G-Men. Grant Calcaterra ran just six, as the Eagles used more three-wide sets than multiple TE sets. Stowers would need a Dallas Goedert injury or trade to come into any fantasy value.

Makai Lemon

WR

Lemon showed a nice rapport with QB Joe Milton in Milton's first NFL start, as the rookie first-round pick led the Eagles in catches, receiving yards and targets. Lemon has operated as Philadelphia's de facto No. 1 WR while DeVonta Smith (hamstring) and Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) have both missed the past three games, but the Eagles could get at least one of their top two wideouts back in Week 11 against the Steelers following a Week 10 bye.

Dallas Goedert

TE

Goedert finished one catch and 11 yards shy of Makai Lemon's team-leading totals in Joe Milton's first start for the Eagles. Both of Goedert's touchdowns this season came back in Week 1, and the Eagles have since changed QBs twice. Goedert's best result in the three games started by Tanner McKee was a six-catch, 61-yard outing, so the veteran TE has remained consistent even as the offense around him falls apart due to injuries. Milton, McKee and rookie fifth-round pick Cole Payton are all potential candidates to start in Week 11 against the Steelers after Philadelphia's Week 10 bye.

Joe Milton

QB

The big-armed Milton wasn't effective as a passer while working with a depleted receiving corps that was missing DeVonta Smith (hamstring) and Dontayvion Wicks (ankle), but Milton showcased strong mobility and led the Eagles in rushing yards while RBs Saquon Barkley and Elijah Mitchell combined for just 28 rushing yards on 16 carries. The 2024 sixth-round pick of the Patriots played nearly the full game in the 2024 regular-season finale against the Bills and got into four games with Dallas during the 2025 campaign, but this was Milton's first regular-season NFL start. Philadelphia's Week 10 bye will provide an opportunity to evaluate a QB room consisting of Milton, the recently benched Tanner McKee and rookie fifth-round pick Cole Payton. Whichever QB gets the starting nod in Week 11 against the Steelers would benefit from the potential return of Smith or Wicks after the bye.

Saquon Barkley

RB

Barkley has mustered a meager 2.0 yards per carry over the past two games while playing through hamstring and back injuries, but he also has both of Philadelphia's touchdowns over that span, including a three-yard rushing score in the second quarter Sunday. It has been a slog offensively for the Eagles, who have tried first Tanner McKee and now Joe Milton under center since losing starting QB Jalen Hurts (IR, calf) likely for the season while also playing without top two wide receivers DeVonta Smith (hamstring) and Dontayvion Wicks (ankle). It's fair to wonder if Barkley will eventually be shut down as well to get a chance to heal as the 2-7 Eagles drop out of contention, but at least a Week 10 bye will offer him a respite before Philadelphia's Week 11 home game against the Steelers.

Zack Baun

LB

Baun exited the second half of Sunday's game with a back injury. Smael Mondon will fill in at inside linebacker opposite Jeremiah Trotter while Baun receives further medical evaluation to determine if he can return to the contest.

Tanner McKee

QB

McKee has overcome his rib injury in time to suit up for Sunday's contest. The quarterback is set to back up Joe Milton against the Giants due to the absence of former starter Jalen Hurts (calf, IR).

Jalyx Hunt

Nolan Smith Jr.

LB

Smith was a full participant in Friday's practice, and he was cleared from the league's concussion protocol after passing an evaluation by an independent neurologist. His return means less defensive snaps will be available for Jalyx Hunt, Arnold Ebiketie and A.J. Epenesa.
