Will Shipley in London — Handcuff Value Surges Amid Backfield Injuries
Shipley finds himself thrust into a prominent backup role heading into Sunday's neutral-site matchup in London against Jacksonville. With Tank Bigsby landing on injured reserve due to core muscle surgery and starter Saquon Barkley questionable with a hamstring issue, Shipley is suddenly the next man up in Philadelphia's backfield rotation.
Fantasy managers have taken notice, driving Shipley's roster rate past 40% as a priority handcuff. Our weekly projection currently pegs him for a modest 2.8 fantasy points and around three touches, meaning he remains a risky lineup option if Barkley suits up. However, his value spikes dramatically if Barkley sits, making Shipley a priority bench stash whose status demands close monitoring.

Outlook Tyson Bagent
Tyson Bagent at Green Bay — Stepping Under Center for Divisional Showdown
With Caleb Williams sidelined by a hamstring injury, head coach Ben Johnson confirmed Tyson Bagent will start in Week 5 against the Packers. Bagent looked sharp in Week 4 against the Jets, throwing for 268 yards while completing 73.5% of his passes. While he showed great timing and efficiency, he now heads to Lambeau Field for a tough divisional road test.
From a fantasy standpoint, Bagent is strictly an option in superflex or 2QB leagues, currently rostered in just 5% of formats. Our models project him for 188 passing yards, 1.2 passing touchdowns, and 12.8 fantasy points with minimal rushing production. Given his low depth of target and capped scoring ceiling, single-quarterback managers should leave him on the bench.
