Philadelphia Eagles

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (finger) doesn't have an injury designation ahead of Monday's Wild-Card contest against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The star signal-caller exited early during the regular season finale due to a dislocated middle finger. He was limited in practice to start the week but was able to get in back-to-back full practice sessions to close out the practice week. It doesn't sound like Hurts is going to be limited at all during Monday's contest. He'll be without star wideout A.J. Brown (knee) for this game. That means DeVonta Smith, Julio Jones, and Dallas Goedert will need to step up in the receiving game. Hurts will be a high-priced, but solid DFS option for this weekend's slate.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith (ankle) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Monday's playoff matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Smith sat out of the Week 18 loss to the New York Giants due to a mild ankle sprain. Luckily, Smith was able to get through full practice sessions this week. He appears to be a full-go for this game, which is great news for the Eagles offense that is without A.J. Brown (knee) for Monday's game. That being said, Smith will be the No. 1 wideout for this game and a strong DFS option.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown (knee) has been ruled out for his team's wild-card matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Monday night. Brown injured his knee during a Week 18 loss to the New York Giants and will not be able to suit up in his team's playoff game, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. According to Schefter, Brown worked hard in his rehab to get on the field vs. Tampa Bay but he will be held out of the contest. Brown has reportedly progressed enough in his rehab that if the Eagles can beat the Buccaneers and advance to the next round of the playoffs, he could return to action. With Brown out, DeVonta Smith and Dallas Goedert become high-end plays in DFS contests while Quez Watkins becomes a name worth sprinkling into tournament lineups.

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert will go on the road to take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the first round of the NFL playoffs. The 28-year-old was active last week but was on the field for less than 40% of the snaps. After A.J. Brown (knee) left due to injury, Goedert followed suit in an effort to conserve one of the team's top receivers. He could be needed in a big way on Monday, as Brown has yet to return to practice. Tampa Bay struggled mightily to stop opposing tight ends this past regular season, as they gave up the third-most fantasy points to the position. Goedert caught five of seven targets for 41 yards against them in their first meeting back in Week 3 but could see an even higher target share if Brown is ruled out. Goedert has been hit or miss this year, but he will be a popular DFS option during the first round of the playoffs.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith will go on the road to take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the first week of the NFL playoffs. The 25-year-old missed the first game of his NFL career last weekend against the New York Giants due to an ankle injury but has since been a full practice participant and should be good to go Monday night. The big story this weekend is A.J. Brown (knee), who is in danger of missing the game after not practicing all week. If he is inactive, Smith will be the clear top target and could see a massive workload against a Tampa Bay defense that ranked ninth in fantasy points allowed to wide receivers in 2023. At his price point, Smith will be a popular option in DFS regardless of Brown's status.
