Eagles @ Jaguars
Final Score: Jaguars 19, Philadelphia 17
Writer: Brett Ford (@FadeThatMan)
Three Up
- Parker Washington — An unstoppable force at wide receiver.
- Brenton Strange — For a second consecutive week, Strange got a ton of volume and turned it into solid fantasy production.
- Darius Cooper — What is it about the Eagles and no-name wide receivers putting up stretches of crazy fantasy production? This is giving shades of Travis Fulgham.
Two Down
- Eagles’ rushing game — Down multiple starting offensive linemen, and missing their top two running backs, the Eagles could not move the ball on the ground at all.
- Brian Thomas Jr. — A goose egg? Come on, man. This guy needs a change of scenery in the worst way.
Philadelphia Eagles
Quarterback
Jalen Hurts: 21/40 Passing, 220 Yards, TD | 2 Carries, 2 Yards
Remember the days when Hurts had rushing upside? No tush pushes, very few designed runs. It just isn’t there any more so far this season. Hurts wasn’t particularly accurate and in general wasn’t particularly good. It’s an international game and those always get kind of weird, but still … I don’t know what’s going on with Hurts, but having DeVonta Smith back in the mix sometime soon will certainly help. Right now, he’s hardly even start-able for fantasy managers.
Running Back
Saquon Barkley: Did not play
Tank Bigsby: Did not play
Will Shipley: 5 Carries, 6 Yards | 2 Targets, 1 Reception, 7 Yards
Dameon Pierce: 11 Carries, 14 Yards | 5 Targets, 2 Receptions, -2 Yards
Shipley looked to be the backup running back entering the game, but was on the field at the right time. The Eagles drove the ball down the field to inside the 5-yard line with Pierce and then turned it over to Shipley, who dodged a defender in the backfield for a short-yardage rushing score. Shipley later left the game with a foot injury and did not return for the second half. Pierce got the lion’s share of the running back workload but did absolutely nothing with it. This team was without four starting offensive lineman and their top two running backs, and it showed in a big way.
Wide Receiver/Tight End
Darius Cooper: 3 Targets, 2 Receptions, 71 Yards, TD
With three touchdowns in the past two games, Cooper looks like the second coming of Travis Fulgham. Cooper ran past the Jaguars’ defensive back on Sunday, catching and finishing for a 62-yard score. Hurts seems to have developed a rapport with his young receiver, and we’ll see how his role sustains when DeVonta Smith comes back.

Makai Lemon: 7 Targets, 5 Receptions, 43 Yards
Dontayvion Wicks: 8 Targets, 5 Receptions, 63 Yards
Wicks and Lemon were on the field for 52 and 50 snaps, respectively, serving as the top receivers with Cooper in the offense. Wicks made some key receptions down the stretch as the Eagles took the late lead and was clearly favored in clutch moments over Lemon and Cooper.
Zach Ertz: 2 Targets
Dallas Goedert: 9 Targets, 6 Receptions, 38 Yards
Goedert continues to be the main target in this offense when Smith misses, the most trusted pass catcher in Hurts’ arsenal. He was targeted in the short areas as a safety valve and was involved on 29 routes while Ertz and the other tight ends ran just 12 combined.
Jacksonville Jaguars
Quarterback
Trevor Lawrence: 24/39 Passing, 331 Yards, 2 TD, INT | 3 Carries, 25 Yards
There are things that Lawrence has the capability to do on a football field that very few other people in the NFL, or on Earth, have the capability to do. He continues to make some insane throws that probably only he and Caleb Williams could pull off. His interception came on a throw where he wasn’t able to set his feet properly and underthrew a ball that the corner undercut. His two touchdowns were to his favorite target, Parker Washington, and the second one was an absolute thing of beauty.
Parker Washington’s improvement from Year 1 to Year 4 has been rapid.

Running Back
Bhayshul Tuten: 22 Carries, 72 Yards | 3 Targets, 2 Receptions, 24 Yards
Chris Rodriguez Jr.: 2 Carries, 5 Yards | 1 Target, 1 Reception, 6 Yards
The Rodriguez experiment has got to stop, right? He’s a goal-line back who isn’t effective at the goal line. Meanwhile, Tuten is doing literally everything else and doing it relatively well. Tuten continues to earn the volume of this team, making him an outstanding fantasy asset. I wouldn’t be surprised to see the Jaguars continue to phase out Rodriguez’s role.
Wide Receiver
Parker Washington: 9 Targets, 6 Receptions, 124 Yards, 2 TD
Stud. What more analysis do you want from me?

Jakobi Meyers: 3 Targets, 2 Receptions, 37 Yards
Brian Thomas Jr.: 3 Targets
Josh Cameron: 6 Targets, 3 Receptions, 43 Yards
Travis Hunter: 1 Target, 1 Reception, 9 Yards
BTJ has to be the next receiver headed to a different team. He was targeted just three times and on the field for 50% of snaps. Cameron has developed into a nice role as a third receiver, earning six targets on just 13 routes. It’s time for both parties to move on and hope that the third-year receiver can re-capture the greatness we saw in his rookie campaign in someone else’s offense.
Tight End
Brenton Strange: 8 Targets, 7 Receptions, 68 Yards
Nate Boerkircher: 2 Targets, 2 Receptions, 20 Yards
Another week of huge volume for Strange, and don’t look now but he’s a top-10 tight end for the second consecutive week. Strange was on the field for 58 of 72 offensive snaps and ran 30 routes. As soon as he starts finding the end zone (he was tackled on the 2-yard line in this one), he’s a really solid option at the position on a weekly basis.
