Mattek Fantasy Football on Saquon Barkley

VideoTop 50 Week 7 Running Back Rankings + TiersOctober 24, 2026

From the video

Saquon Barkley in his first game back from injury. I've got at running back 13. Will Shipley is out. So, Barkley's going to play more of the third downs. You could get like a five catch Barkley game here. And maybe he lips rips off a long run the way that pretty much everyone has done against the Dallas Cowboys.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

RB13 in return from injury with expanded third-down role vs. weak Dallas defense.

Ranked RB13 in first game back from injury; source deliberated extensively on ranking and settled on this tier due to increased third-down role opportunity. Will Shipley's absence means Barkley will handle more passing-down snaps. Source projects potential five-catch game and long-run upside against Dallas Cowboys defense (32nd in NFL EPA per play), positioning him as a strong start despite injury return.
