Will Shipley Sees Work With First-Team Offense
3 months ago

Philadelphia Eagles rookie running back Will Shipley was getting some first-team red-zone work in training camp practice on Tuesday. For some context, Shipley also split first-team work with Kenneth Gainwell on Monday with primary back Saquon Barkley away from the team for personal reasons. Shipley, a fourth-rounder out of Clemson, is competing with Gainwell for the No. 2 job in Philly in 2024 in camp and the preseason. Gainwell obviously has much more experience than Shipley and familiarity in the Eagles' offense, but the 21-year-old Shipley has more immediate and long-term upside in deeper fantasy formats as a handcuff option for Barkley if he wins the No. 2 job. If Barkley were to miss time due to injury in his first year with the Eagles, Shipley would be a highly sought-after waiver-wire pickup in fantasy.
