Saquon Barkley to Play Against Eagles

There’s a lot on the line this Sunday. NFL playoff-clinching scenarios are on the table and it’s make or break time for fantasy football teams everywhere on the verge of a bye, a postseason spot or just avoiding their league’s last-place punishment.

Whatever situation you’re in, I wish you luck. But we can do a little better than that—keep reading for all the information you need to know before lineups lock.

In today’s Winners Club you’ll find:

Who’s In, Out and Still Questionable

All things considered, the injury report for the regular-season finale is relatively manageable. Lamar Jackson is missing his first game of the year and the Seahawks running back room is in shambles.

Beyond that, the status of Giants running back Saquon Barkley was a matter of utmost importance after he popped up on the injury report midweek with a neck injury ahead of a divisional game against the Eagles. It was reported Sunday morning that he will play. Adjust your lineups accordingly.

Lamar Jackson, Ravens: OUT (knee)

Trevor Lawrence, Jaguars: QUESTIONABLE (toe), expected to play

NFL Week 14 Game Lines

This week’s slate of games is truly a treat. There are six games going on between division opponents, we’re witnessing the largest spread of the season between the Cowboys and Texans (Dallas is -1613 on the moneyline, if you’re so inclined) and the 10-2 Vikings are road underdogs against the 5-7 Lions.

The nightcap is Tua Tagovailoa’s Dolphins against Justin Herbert’s Chargers in a game that matters plenty for AFC playoff seeding but also pits the back-to-back picks from the 2020 draft against one another.

The Chiefs, Vikings and Eagles can clinch playoff spots today if all goes right for them. Albert Breer and Conor Orr broke down the scenarios in their Week 14 preview.

Get in on the action this week with SI Sportsbook’s Perfect 10 contest, which gives you a chance to win a $10,000 grand prize! Just pick 10 games against the spread to enter. My colleagues and I each selected our best bet for this week’s games. I like the Bengals over the Browns.

And if you prefer prop bet markets, our writers have plenty of picks as well. Jen Piacenti has five she likes this week and Shawn Childs broke down his best bets by position: quarterback, running back and wide receiver.
