With Saquon Barkley resting and Kenny Gainwell lacking follow as a result of mixture of a concussion and a knee harm, the crew solely had three operating backs out there to take reps: Will Shipley, Tyrion Davis-Value, and Nichols.
Barkley figures to return to follow in New Orleans this week because the Eagles put together for Tremendous Bowl LIX. It additionally looks like the crew is anticipating Gainwell to return … therefore Nichols being deemed expendable.
