Saquon Barkley Week 8 Outlook - Eagles at Bengals

By Mick Ciallela (Fantrax), Wed, Oct 23rd 2024, 6:31pm EDT

Saquon Barkley trounced his former team to the tune of 176 rushing yards last week. He ran for a score and added two catches, finishing as the overall RB2 for the week. The motivation may not be the same for Barkley this week, but the matchup is certainly favorable. The Cincinnati Bengals rank 31st in the NFL in EPA versus the run this season. They have also allowed seven rushing touchdowns to opposing backs. That is tied for fifth-most in the NFL. Barkley should continue to reward fantasy managers with big numbers in Week 8.
