UPDATE: Barkley bettors and fantasy managers rejoice: he’s back on the sideline with his helmet on. His return to the game appears imminent.

UPDATE: The Eagles have officially announced that Saquon Barkley is questionable to return to Sunday’s game with a stinger.

UPDATE: Saquon Barkley is headed to the locker room on Sunday. Tank Bigsby is in, and Will Shipley will serve as the backup in the meanwhile. Still no information from the team.

Saquon Barkley has officially Week 2’s game against the Tennessee Titans with a left arm injury after this play. Tank Bigsby is in. See the video below to view how awkwardly Barkley went down.

His availability for the remainder of the game remains unclear. An apparent arm injury alone offers little indication of its severity, and a return designation still needs confirmation.

Barkley entered Week 2 after rushing for 83 yards on 15 attempts against Washington, including a 42-yard gain. NFL game log His early departure leaves Philadelphia trying to establish its running game without its lead back, while fantasy managers await word on whether he can return.

For now, we await for more news, and hope good things for Saquon.
