They got to find a way to activate AJ Brown. Yeah, go back to 2019, 2020, 2021,” Kimes explained.</p><p>“How many times did we watch Ryan Tannehill in Tennessee? Yes, under center, fake the handoff, and then just throw a rocket to AJ Brown. Crossers, deep digs, posts. During that time frame. He led all NFL receivers in yards for routes run of the play action. It is such a big part of his skill set. And frankly, it’s something that Philadelphia hasn’t really tapped into the crossers, the digs. And again, if they’re going to lean in more into play action, I think there’s such big play potential here for AJ Brown. Maybe make him happy. I don’t know, but it’s something that I think they have to do more again. If they’re going to do it.”</p><p>With rumors of a Brown trade rearing their ugly heads once more in 2025 after some performances where he didn’t get much done on the statsheet, some fans openly wondered if the Eagles held the star wide receiver out of action in Week 8 to avoid a potential injury before the trade deadline. While that could happen, it’s more likely Brown will finish out the season in Philadelphia, with Kimes’ idea a potential way for Nick Sirianni and company to sustainably keep him happy and their offense executing at the highest level.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">If the Eagles are going to live in an under center play action world, AJ Brown *should* be a big part of it. <a href="https://t.co/FlSIQsoqgR">pic.twitter.com/FlSIQsoqgR</a></p><p>— Mina Kimes (@minakimes) <a href="https://twitter.com/minakimes/status/1983291493159731352?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">October 28, 2025</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Some of it just made for boring football, while some of the other results showed us who is for real and who is not as a playoff contender this season.</p><p>Take one of the games of the week on paper, between the Denver Broncos and the Dallas Cowboys, for example. Dallas came in at 3-3-1 after an impressive win over the Commanders, while the Broncos sat at 5-2 despite not exactly passing the eye test in a win over the Giants in Week 7. However, the Broncos crushed the Cowboys, dominating on both sides of the ball.</p><p>Now, it’s clear that Denver is a playoff contender in the AFC, while the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/dallas-cowboys/broncos-blowout-left-cowboys-brian-schottenheimer-tossing-and-turning">Cowboys are not at that level</a> in the NFC. Results like that took place throughout the league, but who came out as the big winners of the weekend?</p><h2><b>Ravens keep in touch in AFC North race</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Baltimore-Ravens-running-back-Derrick-Henry-22-celebrates-with-teammates-after-scoring-a-touchdown-against-the-Chicago-Bears.jpg"><figcaption>© Geoff Burke-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>The Baltimore Ravens were an early candidate for a the cursed season in the NFL as they dealt with a 1-5 start and a number of key injuries on both sides of the ball. Those issues got even worse when, even after a bye week, Lamar Jackson was still not ready to play after missing time with a hamstring problem in Week 8 against the Bears.</p><p>Fear not, as Cooper Rush was out as the Baltimore backup and Tyler Huntley was in, and the longtime Raven balled out in his first start with the team this year. Huntley played some of his best football and the defense played well in the big moments to help Baltimore secure a 30-16 win and get to 2-5.</p><p>At the same time, the Bengals inexplicably handed the Jets their first win of the season. Hours later, the Steelers lost at home to the Packers on Sunday Night Football and dropped to 4-3, leaving the Ravens just two games out of first place with two games still to come against Pittsburgh.</p><p>Baltimore is getting healthy on both sides of the ball, and now <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/baltimore-ravens/ravens-news-lamar-jackson-healthy-heading-tnf">Jackson is back in the lineup for Week 9</a> against the Dolphins. The defense also seems to be turning a corner, making this a very dangerous team in the AFC playoff race.</p><h2><b>Broncos offense finds a groove</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Broncos_97bcf6.jpg"><figcaption>Mandatory Credit: Ron Chenoy-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>The Broncos offense was completely lifeless for the first three quarters in Week 7 against the Giants before coming alive with 33 points in the fourth quarter. On Sunday against the Cowboys, that momentum continued with a 44 point outburst to get a 20-point win over a very capable NFC foe.</p><p>Bo Nix threw four touchdowns in the win and the Broncos finished with the third-best EPA per play on the week, including a mark that led the league on passing plays. Denver also ran for 179 yards on 28 carries against a Dallas defense that really had no answers.</p><p>The Denver defense also forced Dak Prescott into one of his worst games of the season on the other side of the ball, and Vance Joseph’s group is once again one of there most reliable units in football. If Sean Payton can keep this running game clicking and Bo Nix can keep the ball out of harm’s way like he did for most of Sunday, the 6-2 Broncos will be a tough out down the stretch.</p><h2><b>Justin Fields bounces back</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Justin-Fields-was-able-to-register-his-first-victory-with-the-the-Jets.jpg"><figcaption>Mandatory Credit: Joseph Maiorana-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>How can you not be happy for Justin Fields? Well, unless you’re a Bengals fan. Fields has already been kicked to the curb by two NFL teams, and it looked like the Jets were ready to do the same after <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/new-york-jets/jets-news-justin-fields-benched-tyrod-taylor-panthers">benching him for Tyrod Taylor</a> in Week 7.</p><p>However, Taylor missed Sunday’s game against the Bengals with an injury, leaving Fields to start yet again. It couldn’t have been easy to take the field for a team whose owner just bashed you publicly days before the game, but that’s exactly what Fields did, and he responded.</p><p>The Ohio State product completed 21-of-32 passes for 244 yards and a touchdown while running for 31 yards. He led a Jets offense that notched 39 points to get New York its first win of the season before pouring his heart out at the podium after the game.</p><p>There isn’t any bigger take here about Fields’ viability as a starting quarterback in the NFL. He is clearly a limited player at that position, and it sounds like his job still might not be safe even after his good game on Sunday. But it was great to see a feel-good story from a journeyman QB on Sunday to get the first win of the season for his team.</p><h2><b>Saquon Barkley finally looks like himself</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Eagles-RB-Saquon-Barkley-vs-Giants.jpg"><figcaption>© Bill Streicher-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>The Eagles haven’t been bad this season, far from it, actually, but they have been extremely frustrating. The passing game has been inconsistent with a couple of shot plays to AJ Brown and DeVonta Smith mixed in, and the running game hasn’t gotten anywhere close to the peaks it hit last season with Saquon Barkley.</p><p>Those problems came to a head in a Thursday night loss to the New York Giants earlier this season, and the Eagles got their chance for revenge on Sunday. They did not waste it, running away with a 38-20 win to get to 6-2 on the season despite Brown being out of the lineup.</p><p>The Eagles finally were able to run the ball well, racking up 276 yards on 33 carries on the ground. Both Barkley and Tank Bigsby hit the 100-yard mark as Philly was able to grind the Giants down throughout the game.</p><p>Philadelphia still has a clearly limited passing game, and the defense isn’t playing at quite the level it was last season. Therefore, it will need to continue running the ball like this if it wants to make a run at a repeat. The schedule will give the Eagles tougher tests than the Giants, but this was a great step in the right direction for the defending champs.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Well, you've come to the right place.</address><h3 class="op-kicker">NFL</h3><figure class="op-ad"></figure></header><p>In a league where teams are throwing for more yards than ever, the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/philadelphia-eagles/eagles-news-cooper-dejean-super-bowl-pick-6-miles-teller">Philadelphia Eagles are happy to have Cooper DeJean</a>, the 22-year-old defensive back who has become the NFL’s premier slot cornerback in just his second professional season.</p><p>Taking the field for <a href="https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/D/DeJeCo00.htm" rel="noopener">98 percent</a> fo the Eagles’ defensive snaps through Week 8, DeJean has been on absolute fire, recording 52 tackles, four tackles for a loss and six passes defensed so far this season while giving interior receivers fits when deployed in the slot.</p><p>Asked about DeJean’s play so far in 2025, defensive coordinator Vic Fangio thanked the other 31 teams in the NFL for <a href="https://eagles.1rmg.com/transcripts/vic-fangio-10-28-25/" rel="noopener">not picking the Iowa cornerback</a> last spring, as it allowed the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/philadelphia-eagles/eagles-news-why-cooper-dejeans-unclear-role-good-thing-vic-fangio">Eagles to add a <i>darn</i> good nickle for years to come</a>.</p><p>“No, we got very lucky that he lasted till the middle of the second round. I think the reason he did is because he only played corner in college, at least his last year,” Fangio noted. “I don’t think everybody was sure [if he] was he a first-round corner, second-round corner, third-round corner. I don’t think the league as a whole had a feel for his versatility because he didn’t play it in college. He’s really a d**n good nickel. Probably one of the best nickels in the league, and we’re playing him at corner in the base. He could play safety if we needed him to. He’s a defensive back, but really, he’s just a good football player.”</p><p>So, while DeJean is a truly elite interior option for the Eagles in the slot, would Philadelphia consider moving him to the outside full-time because of the lack of production from players like Kelee Ringo and Adoree’ Jackson? Fangio isn’t quite there yet, but he has at least considered it.</p><p>“We considered it,” Fangio noted. “But when you have one of the better players at a certain position, and it’s an important position where you get involved more, you hate to take a really good player at one position to maybe not be as good of a player or impactful of a player at another position. But it’s definitely something that we’ve talked about.”</p><p>Will the Eagles eventually stick DeJean outside and give a player like Mac McWilliams or Parry Nicholas a shot inside full-time? Or will Howie Roseman follow in Les Snead’s footsteps and trade for a cornerback before the month comes to an end, giving a new player the bye week to learn a new playbook? Fans will find out soon enough.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

With Devin Singletary also on the roster and the trade deadline still a few days away, it will be interesting to see how the Giants handle Week 9 and beyond heading towards the November 4 deadline.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

He has also done work for FantasyPros and co-hosted the Lay The Points podcast as part of a decade-long career in sports entertainment.</address><h3 class="op-kicker">Chicago Bears</h3><figure class="op-ad"></figure></header><p>There is a reason that professional football teams only play once a week. It is a brutally physical sport that often leads to players being hurt. Week 8 of the 2025 NFL season was no exception. Savvy fantasy football managers understand the importance of following injury reports to make the most well-informed roster decisions each week.</p><p>So, I am tailoring this column through the lens of fantasy football. I will explore and detail injuries across the league and provide insight into the fantasy ramifications.</p><p>So, let’s get to it.</p><h2><b>Giants RB Cam Skattebo</b></h2><p>We will begin with what is the worst injury of the week: New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo’s ankle.</p><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/new-york-giants/giants-news-cam-skattebo-nasty-injury-teammates-distraught">Skattebo suffered a devastating ankle dislocation</a> during Sunday’s loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. It is one of those most people don’t want to see. If you are a basketball fan, think of Gordon Hayward’s debut with the Boston Celtics a few years ago.</p><p>Yeah, it was that ugly.</p><p>The rookie out of Arizona State is obviously done for the year. It is a massive blow to the Giants’ offense, and fantasy managers whose teams were propelled by Skattebo.</p><p>Week 1 starter Tyrone Tracy Jr. immediately becomes a must-add when waivers run this week. He very likely had been dropped in your league already. Going forward, you can project Tracy Jr. as a weekly flex play. But don’t get it twisted, he will not produce like Skattebo had been.</p><h2><b>Eagles RB Saquon Barkley</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Eagles-RB-Saquon-Barkley-vs-Giants.jpg"><figcaption>© Bill Streicher-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>In that same game, Eagles’ All-Pro tailback <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/philadelphia-eagles/eagles-news-saquon-barkley-limps-off-blue-tent-apparent-injury-giants">Saquon Barkley also left early with an injury</a>.</p><p>The reigning Offensive Players of the Year suffered a groin injury vs. the Giants and did not return to the game. However, Eagles’ head coach Nick Sirianni said on Monday that it was nothing serious. He alluded to the fact that if the game had been closer, Barkley could have returned.</p><p>With Philly’s bye week coming up, he should be a full-go in Week 10. Fire him up as usual, although his season has not gone as planned.</p><h2><b>Browns tailback Quinshon Judkins</b></h2><p>It was a week of running back injuries, because we have another one on the list.</p><p>In the Cleveland Browns’ 32-13 loss to the New England Patriots, starting running back Quinshon Judkins got nicked up. He left early with a shoulder injury, which was a cause for concern for fantasy football managers.</p><p>After all, since his NFL debut in Week 2, he has been a rock-solid RB2 with three RB1 weekly finishes.</p><p>Thankfully for Browns fans and fantasy managers, you can breathe a sigh of relief. Cleveland head coach Kevin Stefanski said on Monday that <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/cleveland-browns/browns-news-quinshon-judkins-day-to-day-shoulder-injury-patriots-game">Judkins is day-to-day</a>. Similar to Barkley, Judkins will have an extra week to rest up and heal. The Browns are off in Week 9 and will face the lowly New York Jets coming out of the bye.</p><h2><b>Broncos WR Marvin Mims Jr.</b></h2><p>The first wide receiver on our list is Denver Broncos wideout Marvin Mims Jr.</p><p>The speedy receiver got knocked into next Sunday along the sidelines late in Denver’s win over the Dallas Cowboys. <a href="https://www.si.com/nfl/broncos/onsi/news/broncos-marvin-mims-concussion-protocol-huge-cowboys-win" rel="noopener">He is in the concussion protocol</a>. Despite facing a juicy matchup in Week 8, Mims disappointed with zero catches on one target. He ran the ball three times for 18 yards and was valuable in the return game. But that isn’t helping almost anyone in the fantasy football world.</p><p>He can safely be dropped, especially with a daunting matchup against the Houston Texans on tap (assuming he clears the concussion protocol).</p><h2><b>Bears WR Luther Burden III</b></h2><p>The Chicago Bears took a tough loss on Sunday, losing 30-16 at Baltimore against the Ravens. That wasn’t the only L sustained, though.</p><p>Wide receiver Luther Burden III suffered a concussion and was ruled out. Granted, only those in 16-team leagues are likely playing the rookie wideout. But if he does not clear the protocols for Week 9, both DJ Moore and Rome Adunze get a little bump in a plus matchup.</p><p>The Bears will face the Cincinnati Bengals, who just allowed Justin Fields to look like a Pro Bowler. Adunze can be counted on as a solid WR,2 with Moore offering flex value with upside.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

It was probably one of the more dominant wins from the team this season, as both sides of the ball were clicking. Jalen Hurts continued his strong play, completing 15 of his 20 passes for 179 yards and four touchdowns. Hurts continued to make the right read almost every time, and he put the Eagles in the best position to score.</p><p>After the game, Hurts was asked if he <a href="https://x.com/DZangaroNBCS/status/1982555802813751513" rel="noopener">had an answer</a> for how he had been playing lately, and the quarterback had eight words that could scare his future opponents.</p><p>“I think the best is yet to come,” Hurts said.</p><p>If that’s how Hurts really feels, then many people should be worried about the Eagles. Through the first part of the season, they didn’t look in sync, more specifically, the offense. DeVonta Smith and A.J. Brown came out and talked about their lack of targets, and since then, they’ve been getting the ball fed to them consistently.</p><p>Even Saquon Barkley had been struggling for the past few weeks, and he had a breakout game against the Giants, finishing with 150 yards and a touchdown. If the Eagles’ offense is starting to take shape, the rest of the league needs to buckle up.</p><h2><b>Eagles starting to find a groove</b></h2><p>The Eagles have some positives to take from the past few weeks, and they could be getting into a rhythm that helped them win the Super Bowl last season. Dallas Goedert, who scored two touchdowns against the Giants, believes that the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/philadelphia-eagles/eagles-news-dallas-goedert-assessment-giants-takedown-fire-fans">Eagles could be hitting their stride</a>.</p><p>“Going into a bye with a win is always a really good thing,” Goedert said via NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo. “It makes the bye week all the better. But it seems like we’re finally getting our groove, played a good game offensively, defensively on a special team today.”​</p><p>With the bye week coming up, the Eagles have time to rest up, and hopefully, they can keep that momentum that they have when they come back. They should also be getting some players back from injury, such as Brown, which is a plus for their offense.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Both Saquon Barkley and Tank Bigsby rushed for over 100 yards, making them the first Eagles running back duo to accomplish that feat this season. Barkley finished with 150 yards and two touchdowns, while Bigsby added 104 yards.</p><p>The Eagles needed other players to step up without injured star receiver A.J. Brown.

His role could see an uptick, but he is still likely to be behind DeVonta Smith and even tight end Dallas Goedert in terms of targets.</p><p>Dotson came over to Philadelphia after two seasons with the division rival Washington Commanders in a trade with a fifth-round pick for two seventh-rounders and a third. With Washington, Dotson was selected with the 16th overall pick with the team expecting him to make an immediate impact. His career didn’t quite turn out how they hoped, as Dotson only had 1,041 yards across two seasons with the team. Now, he has a chance to make an impact in Philly while its star is sidelined.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
