Eagles Upgrade Saquon Barkley's Status vs Cowboys
Barkley returned after missing two games and scored on an 8-yard run, but he later visited the medical tent after a 29-yard burst.
- On Monday night at Lincoln Financial Field, Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley returned to action against the Dallas Cowboys after missing two games, scoring an 8-yard touchdown during the opening drive.
- Barkley's absence stemmed from a hamstring injury sustained in the first quarter of Week 4 against the Los Angeles Rams, following an earlier stinger during Week 2 against the Tennessee Titans.
- Despite the touchdown, Barkley appeared to aggravate his hamstring on a 29-yard run, later visiting the blue medical tent where he used a stationary bike and mouthed "I'm being smart," according to Dr. Jeff Mueller.
- With Barkley limited, the Eagles rotated him with running back Dameon Pierce while quarterback Tanner McKee connected with rookie Makai Lemon for 21 yards during the second quarter.
- The Eagles offense continues to navigate significant absences, playing without starting quarterback Jalen Hurts and wide receivers DeVonta Smith and Dontayvion Wicks as injury-related lineup changes compound the team's offensive struggles.
