Saquon Barkley currently leads the NFL in rushing yards, and he could log 40+ carries in Week 4 with the bye week just days away.
Philadelphia retook the practice field on Thursday without A.J. Brown (hamstring) and DeVonta Smith (concussion) for Sunday’s matchup at Tampa Bay.
Still no A.J. Brown (hamstring) and DeVonta Smith (concussion) at practice. #Eagles WRs trending toward not playing Sunday at the Bucs.

Brown has missed the last two weeks with a hamstring injury, and Smith was forced to exit with a head injury suffered during Sunday’s win over the Saints. The Week 5 bye would give Brown a month since he last played, while Smith would get two weeks of rest.
