Chiefs Defense Tasked With Stopping Eagles In The Super Bowl
Feb 8, 2025, 3:26 AM ET
The Kansas City Chiefs defense has been a solid unit this season, but they will face their toughest test this weekend. The Chiefs defense must slow down the vaunted Philadelphia Eagles offense to win their third straight Super Bowl. One obstacle between Kansas City and history is the newly crowned Offensive Player of the Year, Saquon Barkley. Barkley just put up one of the most impressive offensive seasons in NFL history and has been nearly unstoppable all year. If the Chiefs hope to win, they must find a way to cap Barkley's production out of the backfield. Even if Kansas City can hinder Barkley's production, they must contend with one of the best wide receiver duos in the league and a top quarterback at the helm. It will be no small feat to slow down Philadelphia, but the Chiefs have the players and coaching staff to pull it off. Trusting the Chiefs defense in DFS and playoff leagues could be advisable given how well they perform in the biggest moments.--Joshua CostelloSource: Philadelphia Eagles - Twitter

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Emeka Egbuka was expected to lose value with the change at quarterback, but the second-year wideout was non-existent on Sunday. Egbuka hauled in two of his four targets for 13 yards in the loss to the Green Bay Packers. The Bucs whole offense didn't look good with rookie Jalon Daniels under center. Egbuka saw a season-low four targets in the three-point loss. Tampa Bay has a quick turn around with a matchup in Dallas versus the Cowboys on Thursday. This offense looked a little better in the second half, but Egbuka might fall into flex territory until he builds more chemistry with Daniels.--Andy WebbSource: ESPN

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (ankle) is considered day-to-day after exiting early during Sunday's win over the Tennessee Titans. The superstar quarterback was seen leaving the stadium with a walking boot on his left foot, per Brian Wacker. Head coach Jesse Minter seemed optimistic that Jackson would be fine for next week's matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. Before leaving, Jackson completed 16-of-21 passing attempts for 230 yards with two touchdowns and zero interceptions. He also rushed the ball twice for an additional 20 yards. Fantasy managers will need to monitor Jackson's progress throughout the week ahead of next week's matchup in Atlanta.--Andy WebbSource: Brian Wacker

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice (hamstring) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Las Vegas Raiders, according to Sam McDowell. Rice had been on the injury report with a knee issue during the week, but he practiced fully all three days and entered Sunday without a designation. The hamstring is a new concern for Rice, who came into Week 4 with 13 catches for 190 yards and a touchdown through three games.--Bruno MuléSource: Sam McDowell

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins is dealing with an abductor injury, head coach Zac Taylor said after Sunday's 22-17 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars, according to Charlie Clifford. Higgins was hurt after making a 19-yard catch late in the fourth quarter and needed attention from the training staff. He missed the next play but returned later in the drive, catching a pass on his first snap back. Higgins finished with 11 receptions for 157 yards, easily his best receiving total through four games. Taylor did not provide a timetable or any additional details on the injury immediately after the game.--Bruno MuléSource: Charlie Clifford
Kyle Monangai's Fantasy Value Jumps After Week 4 Breakout

Chicago Bears running back Kyle Monangai just made this backfield much more interesting for fantasy managers. Monangai entered Sunday with exactly 10 carries in each of Chicago's first three games, then handled 30 of them for 146 yards and two touchdowns in the 23-12 win over the Jets. He scored from one yard out in the first quarter and found the end zone again from five yards in the third. The second score came after D'Andre Swift lost a fumble on Chicago's previous possession, and the Bears continued to lean heavily on Monangai the rest of the afternoon. Swift still had 15 carries for 58 yards, so this does not automatically make Monangai the unquestioned lead back going forward. It does make the split much harder to predict. Monangai matched his carry total from the first three weeks in one game and made the most of it, giving his fantasy value a significant boost coming out of Week 4.--Bruno MuléSource: RotoBaller

Seattle Seahawks running back Emanuel Wilson appears set to get the start Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers. Corbin K. Smith reported that Wilson took the first running back reps during pregame warmups with Jadarian Price (chest) on injured reserve. Wilson has 32 carries for 109 yards through three games, with most of that production coming in a 21-carry, 92-yard performance against Arizona in Week 2. George Holani is also available and figures to see work, but Wilson getting the first reps before kickoff points to him opening the game atop the backfield.--Bruno MuléSource: Corbin K. Smith

Seattle Seahawks running back Jadarian Price (chest) isn't expected to be sidelined for the remainder of his rookie season. General manager John Schneider told Steve Raible on Seattle Sports that the team doesn't "see it as a season-ending thing at all." Price still has some time to miss after landing on injured reserve Saturday. He aggravated the chest injury during Wednesday's practice after originally hurting it against Arizona in Week 2 and playing the following week. Price started each of Seattle's first three games, rushing 28 times for 119 yards while catching four passes for 21 yards. He will be required to miss at least four games before becoming eligible to return.--Bruno MuléSource: Brady Henderson

Free-agent running back Joe Mixon (foot) posted a workout video to his Instagram Story this weekend showing himself going through drills as he works toward an NFL comeback. Mixon hasn't played since January 2025 after a foot injury wiped out his entire 2025 season, and Houston released him in March. The 30-year-old was productive the last time he played, rushing for 1,016 yards and 11 touchdowns in 14 regular-season games in 2024. There's now a team showing interest, too. Mixon is traveling to Seattle on Sunday and is expected to visit and work out for the Seahawks on Monday, according to reports. Seattle placed rookie Jadarian Price (chest) on injured reserve Saturday, while Zach Charbonnet (knee) is still working his way back from a torn ACL.--Bruno MuléSource: Joe Mixon

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Ladd McConkey (foot) is active Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. There was some concern about his availability after McConkey missed Thursday's practice, though he was able to get back on the field in a limited fashion Friday. He was officially listed as questionable. McConkey has 12 catches for 183 yards and a touchdown through three games, but the targets haven't exactly been piling up lately. He saw three in Week 2 and five last week. RotoBaller has McConkey at WR32 for Week 4, which puts him more in the WR3 mix than among the receivers fantasy managers need to force into lineups.--Bruno MuléSource: Adam Schefter

He suffered the injury during last week's win over the Arizona Cardinals, finishing with three catches on six targets for 34 yards and a touchdown before exiting. Evans enters Sunday with 12 receptions for 137 yards and two touchdowns through three games.

Jackson had completed 15 of 20 passes for 222 yards and two touchdowns before exiting. He entered Sunday without an injury designation after dealing with a minor back issue earlier in the week, so the ankle is a new concern.--Bruno MuléSource: Ian Rapoport

He was able to walk off under his own power before going to the medical tent and later the locker room. Chase caught all three of his targets for 26 yards before leaving.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver DJ Moore (shoulder) has been downgraded to doubtful to return to Sunday's game against the New England Patriots. Moore left late in the second quarter and was initially listed as questionable after being evaluated for the shoulder injury. He caught one of two targets for 11 yards and added one carry for six yards before exiting. Moore was already on Buffalo's injury report with a shoulder issue throughout the week, though he entered Sunday without a game designation.

Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels (left elbow) will be a full participant in practice this week, head coach Dan Quinn said Sunday. Daniels was limited in all three practices last week before Washington ruled him out against the Indianapolis Colts. He has missed two straight games since dislocating his left elbow in Week 2 against Dallas. A full week of practice would put Daniels on track to return Sunday against the New York Giants, although he still needs to get through the week before Washington clears him to play. The timing could be important for the Commanders after Marcus Mariota aggravated his right MCL against Indianapolis and is expected to miss some time.--Bruno MuléSource: Tashan Reed
