Philadelphia Eagles running back injuries

Overview

Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley sustained a hamstring injury during the first quarter of a Week 4 game against the Los Angeles Rams. Barkley was escorted to the locker room and ruled out for the remainder of the contest, though early reports noted he was able to walk normally after leaving the stadium.

Following the injury, head coach Nick Sirianni indicated the team was awaiting medical evaluations to determine Barkley’s status for the upcoming Week 5 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The team’s backfield depth was further impacted by news that Tank Bigsby is expected to be placed on Injured Reserve for at least six weeks due to a core muscle injury requiring surgery. Consequently, rookie Will Shipley is expected to take on an increased role in the rushing offense.
