Carson Wentz Fringe QB1 Against Shaky Falcons Defense

Philadelphia Eagles rookie quarterback Carson Wentz has lost the early-season magic, as illustrated by his five turnovers over the last four games. Wentz has just two touchdown passes over that same stretch, but he is coming off a season-high 364 yards in this past Sunday's loss to the New York Giants. The Eagles also draw... Read More

Philadelphia Eagles running back Ryan Mathews finished with five carries for 15 yards, including an eight-yard touchdown run, in Sunday's 28-23 loss to the New York Giants.

Zach Ertz Finally Breaks Out, Worth Consideration Moving Forward

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz finished with eight receptions for 97 yards in Sunday's 28-23 loss to the New York Giants.

Week 9 Daily Fantasy Football Tournament Stacks

If you played Oakland Raiders quarterback Derek Carr (513 yards, four touchdowns) last week, that was a great move. If you paired Carr with wide receiver Amari Cooper (12 receptions, 173 yards, one TD), that was a brilliant move. Hitting on a majorly productive stack like Carr and Cooper can often be the difference between a... Read More

Josh Huff Released by Eagles Following Arrest on Tuesday

The Philadelphia Eagles released wide receiver Josh Huff on Thursday, two days after he was charged with possession of a handgun without a permit.

Carson Wentz Uninspiring Option in Away Game Against Giants

Philadelphia Eagles rookie quarterback Carson Wentz completed 32 of his 43 passes for 202 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions this past Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys.

Darren Sproles Solid PPR Flex Play Despite Uncertain Role

Philadelphia Eagles running back Darren Sproles is coming off his biggest workload of the season in last Sunday's game against Dallas.

Ryan Mathews Still Eagles' Top RB; Difficult to Trust in Fantasy

Philadelphia Eagles running back Ryan Mathews is still the team's No. 1 option in the backfield, head coach Doug Pederson told reporters on Wednesday. Recent events, however, would suggest otherwise. Mathews was mostly an afterthought this past Sunday against Dallas, rushing just four times for 10 yards, including a one-yard touchdown. Mathews also caught one... Read More

Jordan Matthews Low-Ceiling WR3 in Week 9 Matchup

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Jordan Matthews is coming off one of his best performances of the season, an 11-catch, 65-yard outing last Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys.

Zach Ertz Not Worth Starting Amid Recent Struggles

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz has a combined nine receptions for 92 yards over his last four games. It's been a terribly disappointing season for the 25-year-old Ertz, who had a breakout season with 75 receptions for 853 yards in 15 games last season. The Eagles' passing game has been limited under the direction... Read More

Caleb Sturgis Quietly Continues Brilliant Season in Eagles' Loss

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Caleb Sturgis converted all three of his field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point attempts in Sunday night's 29-23 overtime loss to the Dallas Cowboys. He drilled a 55-yarder, his third from 50-plus yards this season, to end the first half. Sturgis is hardly a household name, but fantasy owners will want... Read More

Zach Ertz Disappoints Again, No Longer Worthy of Starting

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz finished with four receptions for 19 yards in Sunday night's 29-23 overtime loss to the Dallas Cowboys.

Read More

Dorial Green-Beckham Notches Best Outing of Season; Still Too Inconsistent

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Dorial Green-Beckham caught five passes for 55 yards in Sunday night's 29-23 overtime loss to the Dallas Cowboys.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Jordan Matthews caught 11 passes for 65 yards and a touchdown in Sunday night's 29-23 overtime loss to the Dallas Cowboys.

Ryan Mathews Scores Short TD, Otherwise Non-Factor in OT Loss

Philadelphia Eagles running back Ryan Mathews rushed four times for 10 yards, including a one-yard touchdown in the second quarter, and caught one pass for one yard in Sunday night's 29-23 overtime loss to the Dallas Cowboys.

Week 8 Daily Fantasy Football Tournament Stacks

What's better than one touchdown? Two touchdowns, of course. When you pair a quarterback with a receiver, tight end or even running back on the same team, any touchdown passes thrown to that player effectively count twice. It might be only one touchdown on the NFL scoreboard, but it counts twice for your fantasy lineup.... Read More

Zach Ertz Needs Breakout Game Sunday Against Cowboys

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz finished with one reception for 14 yards in this past Sunday's win against the previously-unbeaten Minnesota Vikings.

Read More

Jordan Matthews Limited by Carson Wentz's Struggles; Risky Play vs. Dallas

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Jordan Matthews (knee) was limited in practice Wednesday.

Darren Sproles Intriguing PPR Flex Play Against Dallas

Philadelphia Eagles running back Darren Sproles finished with three carries for 26 yards and two receptions for 23 yards in this past Sunday's win against the Minnesota Vikings.

Philadelphia Eagles running back Ryan Mathews finished with 14 carries for 56 yards and one reception for 27 yards in this past Sunday's win against the Minnesota Vikings.

Carson Wentz Too Risky to Start Sunday Against Cowboys

Philadelphia Eagles rookie quarterback Carson Wentz has struggled in his last two starts, failing to top 180 yards in either game while turning it over three times.

Eagles' D/ST Shines in Week 7, Maintains Value With Big-Play Upside

The Philadelphia Eagles' defense tallied a season-high six sacks, forced four turnovers and allowed just 10 points in Sunday's 21-10 win against the previously-unbeaten Minnesota Vikings.

Read More

Darren Sproles Quiet Against Vikings; Low-End PPR Flex Moving Forward

Philadelphia Eagles running back Darren Sproles rushed three times for 26 yards and caught two passes for 23 yards in Sunday's 21-10 win against the Minnesota Vikings.

Josh Huff Stars in Eagles' Win, Still Fantasy Afterthought

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Josh Huff finished with four receptions for 39 yards and returned a second-quarter kickoff 98 yards for a touchdown in Sunday's 21-10 win against the Minnesota Vikings.
