Barkley rushed the ball 19 times for 65 yards in Sunday's 27-13 win over the Steelers. He added two receptions on two targets for nine yards.
Analysis
Barkley missed nearly the entire second quarter with an undisclosed issue, though he handled 12 carries in the final two quarters to alleviate any injury concerns. It still wasn't a spectacular showing, as he was largely held in check by the Steelers, with the only exception being a 22-yard gain late in the first quarter. Barkley was also denied a touchdown for the second consecutive game, though he should have a chance to bounce back in Week 16 against the Commanders.
Barkley carried the ball 20 times for 124 yards and failed to catch his only target in Sunday's 22-16 win over the Panthers. He also ran in a two-point conversion.
Analysis
The star running back reached 100 rushing yards for the fourth straight game and the 10th time this season, in the process setting a new Eagles record with 1,623 rushing yards on the year, topping LeSean McCoy's 1,607 yards from 2013. Barkley remains on track to top 2,000 yards on the season, and Eric Dickerson's NFL record of 2,105 yards is firmly in his sights. Barkley will look to keep rolling in Week 15 against the Steelers.
Barkley rushed 23 times for 107 yards and a touchdown while catching two of four targets for 10 yards in Sunday's 24-19 win over the Ravens.
Analysis
Barkley was in the midst of a mediocre performance by his lofty standards with just 65 rushing yards until he broke free for a 25-yard rushing touchdown with 7:56 remaining. That was his fifth rushing touchdown in the past three games and 11th of the season. Barkley also reached 100 rushing yards for the eighth time in 12 games for Philadelphia. The red-hot running back is showing no signs of slowing down ahead of a juicy Week 14 matchup against the leaky Panthers run defense.
Barkley turned 26 carries into 255 yards and two touchdowns while adding four receptions on as many targets for 47 yards in Sunday's 37-20 win over the Rams.
Analysis
Barkley ran wild on Los Angeles' entire defense from start to finish, setting both a personal and franchise record for most rushing yards in a single game. It was also the first time a running back has scored two 70-plus yard touchdowns in the same game since Jaguars legend Maurice Jones-Drew accomplished the feat against the Titans in 2009, as reported by ESPN.com's Lindsey Thiry. It was also Barkley's fifth game since joining the Eagles in which he's scored two or more touchdowns. Sunday's monster line also set a new high-water mark in rushing yards (1,392) for the seven-year pro with six games left on the schedule. Barkley is looking like the fantasy MVP heading into next Sunday's tilt at Baltimore.
Barkley rushed 26 times for 146 yards and two touchdowns while bringing in two of three targets for 52 yards in the Eagles' 26-18 win over the Commanders on Thursday night.
Analysis
Barkley was the unequivocal team MVP for the Eagles on the night, with his 23- and 39-yard touchdown runs just 20 seconds apart in the fourth quarter pushing Philadelphia's lead from two to 16 points. Surprisingly, the veteran back's rushing yardage tally was only his fourth highest of the season, a testament to the caliber of his first Eagles campaign to date. Barkley's receiving yardage total was a season best, however, and he now has three multi-TD efforts and 1,137 rushing yards over 10 games heading into a favorable Week 12 road matchup against the Rams on Sunday night, Nov. 24.
Barkley rushed 14 times for 66 yards and caught his only target for 12 yards in Sunday's 34-6 win over the Cowboys.
Analysis
Barkley suffered an early injury to his left forearm, but he didn't miss much time and returned to start the second half Sunday, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports. The star tailback didn't appear limited by the injury, outside of sporting a bandage on the affected area, and the blowout nature of the Eagles' win may have limited his playing time as well. Barkley has been one of the top performing players in fantasy this season, so managers should feel confident starting him against the Commanders on Thursday Night Football in Week 11.
Barkley (back) was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report for rest purposes.
Analysis
Barkley has put together three consecutive 100-yard performances on the ground, including this past Sunday against the Jaguars in which he ripped off 199 yards from scrimmage and two total touchdowns on a season-high 30 touches. On Monday, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reported that Barkley dealt with a tight back during that contest, but his ensuing listing to begin Week 10 prep clears the way for him to continue leading the Eagles backfield Sunday at Dallas.
Barkley experienced back tightness during Sunday's win over the Jaguars but is expected to be ready for Week 10 against the Cowboys, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Analysis
Barkley didn't need medical attention during the win over Jacksonville and handled his normal workload, playing 72 percent of the Eagles' offensive snaps and finishing with a 27-159-1 rushing line. He added three catches for 40 yards and an additional touchdown on four targets. Barkley is up to eight touchdowns on the year and has eclipsed 100 yards from scrimmage in seven of eight contests.

Analysis
Barkley continued to carry fantasy squads with another gaudy stat line for the 6-2 Eagles. The 27-year-old has flourished since joining Philadelphia this past offseason, averaging 5.9 yards per carry as a rusher with eight combined touchdowns through eight starts. Barkley has always been a household name in fantasy circles, and he is putting together an MVP-type season heading into a Week 10 matchup against Dallas next Sunday.
