Philadelphia Eagles RB Saquon Barkley could be in line for more working catching the ball out of the backfield, thanks to the departure of WR A.J. Brown (Patriots). He was targeted just 50 times in 2025, and 43 times in 2024. In his final two seasons with the New York Giants, he had 136 total targets. Offensive coordinator Sean Mannion could look to use Barkley more in pass-catching situations to offset the loss of Brown.
Huddle Up: A bump in targets and receptions would be music to the ears of fantasy managers of Barkley. He is already quite productive, going for 1,140 rushing yards and seven touchdowns in 2025, while adding 37 grabs for 273 yards and two more scores. More receptions means more fantasy value, particularly for those in PPR formats. He'll still be an obvious RB1 in all leagues, but he could still end up being a steal if he gets back to his days seeing 50+ receptions and 75+ targets.

Philadelphia Eagles RB Saquon Barkley reached out to retired RB Todd Gurley for advice on how to make the most of offensive coordinator Sean Mannion's system.
Huddle Up: Gurley played with Mannion during his career, and Barkley is doing all he can do to hit the ground running in Mannion's first year as Philadelphia's offensive coordinator. Barkley saw a sizeable drop in production last year, but he still managed to top 1,400 yards from scrimmage thanks to his heavy workload. He should still be in the RB1 mix in 2026, even if the production doesn't come in efficient fashion.

Philadelphia Eagles RB Saquon Barkley said he isn't focused on heavy lifting at this point in the offseason. "It's not really the mindset of putting 500 pounds on your back right now," Barkley said. "I'm working on trampolines. I'm working on a hula hoop of getting my body coordination back together."
Huddle Up: A year after rushing for more than 2,000 yards, Barkley struggled with efficiency and wasn't able to produce many explosive plays in 2025. He still managed to top 1,400 yards from scrimmage thanks to a heavy workload, and even if he is unable to recapture his elite form, Barkley should still be in the RB1 mix in 2026.

Philadelphia Eagles RB Saquon Barkley said he is excited to work with offensive coordinator Sean Mannion because he is bringing a new system to the team. "As a competitor, you love it. You love the challenge of putting yourself in a new system and doing the things that you do really well, and also things that you need to improve on and that they're going to challenge us to do. I feel like if we are able to have that mindset as an offense and buy into that, I think the sky's the limit," Barkley said.
Huddle Up: Barkley has worked in several different offensive systems over the last few years but continues to be a big part of the Eagles offense. He will see plenty of touches again next season and will be a weekly starting option in all fantasy leagues.
