Week 6 Fantasy Football injuries: Jalen Hurts out, likely not the only Eagle

With Saquon Barkley and DeVonta Smith missing practice, Fantasy managers should monitor Eagles, Lamar Jackson and Rashee Rice

Jalen Hurts is out for Week 6, while Saquon Barkley and DeVonta Smith face injury concerns that could reshape Fantasy lineups Coming into Week 6, we knew things were going to be rough. This is one of the toughest bye weeks of the season, with five of the top 20 players on Draft Day off. The injury situation isn't making things any easier. There is positive news around Caleb Williams' return and at least some hope of an A.J. Brown return. If either of them plays, they will be ranked as starters. Most of the news early in the week has not been good. Nowhere has the news been as bad as it has been in Philadelphia.

The long-term prognosis is still very much in the air, but what we do know is that Hurts won't play Week 6 against the Carolina Panthers. In his place will be Tanner McKee, who will play behind a makeshift line, possibly without Barkley and Smith, who are both dealing with hamstring issues. The Eagles' implied total has fallen to 17.75, one of the lowest marks of the week. McKee has made two starts in his NFL career and thrown 88 career passes. Both of his starts were in Week 18, so it is hard to know what, if anything, to take from them.
