Eagles' Saquon Barkley: No practice Thursday
Barkley (hamstring/back) didn't practice Thursday.
Barkley has yet to practice this week due to dueling hamstring and back issues, the latter of which knocked him out of Monday's loss to the Cowboys. He relayed to Tim McManus of ESPN.com afterward that he isn't concerned about the most recent injury, but he now has just one more chance to get back on the practice field ahead of Sunday's game at Washington. With all of Tank Bigsby (abdomen), Will Shipley (foot) and Dameon Pierce (undisclosed) on IR, Jaydon Blue currently is the only healthy RB on the Eagles' active roster, though the team also used practice squad member Elijah Mitchell in Monday's loss to the Cowboys.

Eagles' Saquon Barkley: Not spotted at practice
Barkley (hamstring/back) wasn't spotted warming up at Thursday's practice, Brooks Kubena of The Athletic reports.
After sitting out Wednesday's walkthrough as a non-participant, Barkley now appears absent again at the start of Thursday's session. His official participation level will be confirmed by Philadelphia's injury report later Thursday, but Barkley seems to be trending in the wrong direction after sustaining what he described as a compensatory back injury during Monday's 38-21 loss to the Cowboys, which marked his return from a two-game absence. Jaydon Blue is the top healthy alternative behind Barkley heading into Sunday night's game against the Commanders.

Eagles' Saquon Barkley: Doesn't practice Wednesday
Barkley (hamstring/back) was listed as a non-participant in Wednesday's walkthrough.
The Eagles are listing Barkley's previous hamstring injury and the back issue that he picked up during Monday's loss to the Cowboys as the reasons for Wednesday's absence. He'll have two more chances to mix into drills this week, but even if he isn't able to, he mentioned of the aforementioned contest that his "hamstring came out great" and that he isn't worried about the new health concern, per Tim McManus of ESPN. Ultimately, Friday's injury report will reveal Barkley's odds to suit up Sunday at Washington.

Eagles' Saquon Barkley: Plans to play through back issue
Barkley said after Monday's 38-21 loss to the Cowboys that his "hamstring came out great," and noted that the back issue that kept him out for the entire fourth quarter isn't anything that he expects to prevent him from playing Sunday against the Commanders, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.
While suiting up for the first time since Week 4 after missing the Eagles' previous two games due to a hamstring strain, Barkley took the field for just 10 snaps on the night but was impactful in his limited playing time. He touched the ball on nine of those snaps, carrying seven times for 62 yards and a touchdown to go with two receptions for nine yards on two targets. Heading into the game, the Eagles had deliberately planned to manage Barkley's workload to some extent, but he ended up seeing fewer snaps than anticipated after his back locked up on him following a 29-yard run in the first quarter. He didn't end up taking any snaps after the third quarter, with the Eagles leaning exclusively on Dameon Pierce (undisclosed) and Elijah Mitchell out of the backfield over the final 15 minutes. Fortunately for Barkley, the back issue doesn't seem to be a major concern, but his activity in practice this week will warrant monitoring as the Eagles assess his availability for Sunday's contest.

Eagles' Saquon Barkley: Suffers compensatory back injury
Barkley said Monday that his back injury was compensatory after he tweaked his hamstring on his first run of the game and tried to play through it, EJ Smith of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Barkley had been dealing with a hamstring injury for multiple weeks coming into Monday, but he tried to tough it out and give Philadelphia a boost. He did just that on Philadelphia's first drive, as he gained 12 yards on a reception on the first play and immediately followed that with a 29-yard rush. Barkley appeared to pull up a bit lame on the latter play, but he still managed an eight-yard rushing TD less than two minutes later. However, the star running back was used only intermittently for the remainder of the contest, and Dameon Pierce ended up logging 14 carries (on which he gained 47 yards and scored a TD) to Barkley's seven. Smith reports that Barkley was on a "pitch count" ahead of Monday's game; however, he was deemed questionable to return early in the fourth quarter with what was described as a back injury and never returned. It appears the back issue was a side effect of Barkley tweaking the hamstring problem, which casts considerable doubt on his ability to suit up next Sunday against the Commanders.

Eagles' Saquon Barkley: Questionable to return to Monday Night Football
Barkley is questionable to return to Monday's game against the Cowboys due to a back injury.
Barkley entered Monday's contest managing a hamstring injury but was ultimately able to suit up. The star running back looked hobbled throughout much of the game but was able to tally 62 yards and a touchdown on just seven carries along with two catches on two targets for nine yards before being deemed questionable to return early in the fourth period. The Eagles indicated that Barkley is dealing with a back issue when announcing his 'questionable' tag, so it's unclear if the hamstring is also still bothering him.

Eagles' Saquon Barkley: Back in action Monday
Barkley (hamstring) is listed as active Monday against the Cowboys.
Barkley is available to power the Eagles' backfield for the first time since Week 4, ending a two-game absence due to a hamstring injury. Considering he practiced fully Saturday, he may be ready to operate as a workhorse as he did in his two healthy games (Weeks 1 and 3) this season. In those games, Barkley combined for 32 touches for 160 yards from scrimmage and no TDs.

Eagles' Saquon Barkley: 'Trending toward playing' Monday
Barkley (hamstring), who is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Cowboys, is "trending toward playing," Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Though No. 1 wideout DeVonta Smith (hamstring) has been ruled out for the Week 7 contest, the Eagles are expected to get one of their other top playmakers in Barkley back in action following a two-game absence. Barkley participated in practice throughout the week, turning in limited sessions Thursday and Friday before upgrading to full activity Saturday. Assuming his hamstring checks out fine while warming up Monday, Barkley's availability should be confirmed when the Eagles release their inactive list 90 minutes prior to the 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff.

Eagles' Saquon Barkley: Questionable for Week 7
Barkley (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Cowboys.
Barkley followed up limited sessions Thursday and Friday with a full practice Saturday, but his status remains up in the air for Week 7 action. He's seeking his first game action since Week 4 as he tends to a lingering hamstring injury, something that'll be confirmed, one way or another, about 90 minutes before Monday's 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff.

Eagles' Saquon Barkley: Practicing Saturday
Barkley (hamstring) was on the field for the start of Saturday's practice, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Barkley was a limited participant in each of the first two practices of Week 7 prep as the star running back works his way back from a hamstring injury that sidelined him for each of the Eagles' last two games. Saturday's practice report will shed light on Barkley's status ahead of Monday's game against the Cowboys, and a full session would likely be enough for him to avoid an injury designation. His return would result in Dameon Pierce reverting to a rotational role in the backfield.
