News: 1 day agoBigsby (toe) will participate in Wednesday's practice, Olivia Reiner of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Spin: Bigsby was sidelined for Monday's session due to a toe injury, but he may have sat out for maintenance purposes more than anything after he drew the start out of the backfield in place of a resting Saquon Barkley in Saturday's 24-7 loss to the Ravens in the preseason opener. According to EJ Smith of The Philadelphia Inquirer, Bigsby isn't listed among the limited participants in Wednesday's practice, so he's presumably in line to take part in every drill.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Bigsby was acquired by the Eagles early in the 2025 season and progressively worked his way up to primary backup duties, a role he's expected to play again in 2026. Granted, it's a small sample, but Bigsby has been extremely efficient over the last two seasons. Among 48 backs with 200-plus carries during the span, Bigsby ranks first in yards after contact per attempt (2.75) and eighth in yards per carry (4.86). In fact, Bigsby has led qualified RBs in YAC each of the last two seasons. On the other hand, he hasn't been used much as a receiver (20 career targets). With overworked Saquon Barkley entering his age-29 season, Bigsby certainly has some insurance appeal, even if he defers passing-down work to Will Shipley. Bigsby, 25, is worth consideration in the later rounds.
