The Dallas Cowboys are 2-4 and can’t afford to drop another division game. And a closer look at Philadelphia’s numbers with its star running back tells a revealing story.
Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley is scheduled to return to practice and is in line to play Monday night against the Dallas Cowboys, according to NFL insider Mike Garafolo. The Eagles have faced major depth issues in the backfield, with Tank Bigsby and Will Shipley sidelined on injured reserve. Barkley's anticipated return provides a significant boost for an offense currently being led by backup quarterback Tanner McKee following Jalen Hurts' placement on injured reserve.
Meanwhile, the 2-4 Cowboys face defensive changes ahead of the divisional showdown. Head coach Brian Schottenheimer indicated linebacker Dee Winters will be out for some time, while Dallas expects to welcome back linebacker DeMarvion Overshown and cornerback Cobie Durant to bolster the defense.
