Kenneth Gainwell Given Another DNP At Practice

Kenneth Gainwell Given Another DNP At Practice

one year ago

The Philadelphia Eagles listed running back Kenneth Gainwell (ribs) as a non-participant on their estimated practice report on Tuesday after they conducted a walkthrough. It's the second DNP that Gainwell has picked up this week, meaning he should be considered very questionable to play in Week 2 on a short week this Thursday night against the Minnesota Vikings. The Eagles probably aren't going to push the 24-year-old to play since they also have D'Andre Swift, Boston Scott and Rashaad Penny at their disposal at the position. If Gainwell doesn't play or is limited, Swift figures to be Philly's lead back after seeing just one carry for three yards in his Eagles debut in the Week 1 win over the New England Patriots on Sunday. As of right now, Gainwell profiles as a shaky RB3/flex for Week 2.
