Saquon Barkley fantasy injury tip: Eagles RB news suggests Tank Bigsby handcuff pickup off waiver wire

Injuries coming off a bye week can be one of the trickiest things in fantasy football.

Add a Monday Night Football game to delay the timeline of injury reports, and it gets even tougher.

Welcome to Week 10 for the Philadelphia Eagles' superstar running back, Saquon Barkley.

He hurt his groin late in Week 8, then had a bye in Week 9.

The injury wasn't believed to be serious, but with Philly not playing until Monday Night Football against the Green Bay Packers to end Week 10, the practice reports will be crucial.

If Barkley looks iffy as the week goes along, it'll be tough to make the right lineup decision.

Saquon Barkley fantasy injury tip

If Barkley is on your roster, go pick up Tank Bigsby.

The Eagles traded for Bigsby before the season from the Jacksonville Jaguars, but he didn't break through as Barkley's backup right away. Will Shipley and AJ Dillon both got shots as that.

But in Week 8, Bigsby was the other RB seeing the most time on the field, including after Barkley got hurt.

Dillon could be involved if Barkley is out, too, particularly in short yardage and at the goal line.

And if Barkley really is in jeopardy, there'll likely be reports and quotes that at least point in some direction in the backfield.

But based on Week 8, Bigsby seems like the guy to add as insurance.
