Positive signalNews

Eagles waived two RBs (Blue, Steele) and signed only Mitchell to practice squad, leaving Pierce as the only active backup. strong indicator Barkley returns this week (Monday game) or within next 1–2 weeks. Multiple comments note the math—if Barkley weren't close, Eagles would retain more depth. One comment flags he was initially expected week 7/8; this move suggests week 6 is realistic. Caveat: one dissenting comment says the move is actually bad news for Barkley's timeline.
