Eagles To Ride Hot Hand Between Kenneth Gainwell, D'Andre Swift

one year ago

The Philadelphia Eagles are expected to "ride the hot hand" at running back in Week 3, per NFL Network's Mike Garafolo. Although D'Andre Swift amassed 175 scrimmage yards in a big Week 2 outing versus Minnesota, the return of Kenneth Gainwell (rib) adds an extra element to Philadelphia's backfield. It's worth noting that the Eagles are facing a Tampa Bay Buccaneers defense that allowed just 67 total rushing yards to Khalil Herbert and Roschon Johnson last Sunday. Swift should be viewed as a low-end fantasy RB2 while Gainwell is a fine FLEX play.
