Ryan Mathews has groin injury

Oct 26, 2015

Eagles HC Chip Kelly said Monday that RB Ryan Mathews hurt his groin on a 22-yard run in the first half of the game. The injury wasn’t enough to sit him down for the rest of the night, but Kelly said that the team monitored his snaps closely the rest of the way as a result.

Fantasy Impact:

It answers the question, somewhat, as to why Mathews wasn't in the game as much despite again outproducing DeMarco Murray. Kelly, on a morning sports talk interview with 94 WIP, said RB coach Duce Staley was responsible for the RB rotations when asked why Mathews didn't play much after his long TD run. The Birds have a Week 8 bye before taking on the Cowboys in Week 9.

Cowboys list TE Jake Ferguson as out for Sunday’s game vs. Washington due to his concussion.

Related Players: Luke Schoonmaker

Fantasy Impact:

This puts Schoonmaker more or less in TE streaming consideration, but there are far better options this week, which puts him low on the totem pole.

Eagles WR DeVonta Smith officially Out for Week 12

Eagles ruled out WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) for Sunday against the Rams.

Related Players: A.J. Brown, Jahan Dotson, Johnny Wilson, Dallas Goedert

Fantasy Impact:

It's a bit of a crapshoot as to who the "WR2" on the offense will be, but now that he's ruled out, Brown and Goedert should get a nice boost to their bottom line. That would lock Goedert into a no-doubt TE1 role in Week 12.
