Running Back · Philadelphia Eagles · Age 29 · Penn State · RB15 PPR (Week 4 2026)
Saquon Barkley is ranked RB15 (overall #15) for the Week 4 of the 2026 NFL season in PPR fantasy football by Hayden of The Underdog Football Show.
The Eagles' RB runs really worked early on against a porous Bears' run defense, and Barkley looks fantastic on tape to me. There is the burst, spin moves, and quick decision making that made him an elite fantasy asset before. Unfortunately, the Eagles couldn't carry that over in short yardage last week, so Barkley failed on his two goal-line opportunities. That's the difference between being a fantasy RB1 or not, as he'll always lose some goal-line TDs to Jalen Hurts. He's hard to trust as a top-10 fantasy RB right now because the receiving role just isn't there. He's the RB42 in receptions per game (1.0). Barkley was the RB20 and RB26 in expected half PPR points in his two healthy games this year. Ugghhhh. The matchup leans difficult, too. The Rams don't have Myles Garrett right now, but Aaron Donald is rounding into form and the rest of the DL can't be slept on. The've allowed the 7th-fewest fantasy points to RBs this year, holding CMC to 88 scoreless years and all other RBs to under 8.0 half PPR points. The Eagles are also only projected for 20.25 points, which is 26th and sandwiched between the Steelers and Jets.
