Will Saquon Barkley play on Monday Night Football against the Cowboys in Week 7?

Answered 2026-10-23 · from the ChatFFB news wiki

Yes — everything points to Barkley playing Monday night. After missing Weeks 5–6 with a hamstring strain, he returned to practice Thursday and went full participation after sitting out entirely last week, putting his Week 7 return vs. Dallas "on track" (from the Saquon Barkley page).

It's a great spot to fire him up: the Cowboys' run defense ranks 30th in EPA per carry allowed, and with Dameon Pierce the only healthy backup, Barkley should see heavy usage. Just note the structural headwinds — Lane Johnson retired, Cam Jurgens traded, and Jalen Hurts is on IR — so expectations should be tempered on efficiency. Fantasy Football Today's Week 7 rankings have him in the mix as a startable RB this week ().
