Saquon Barkley: officially active Monday night vs. Cowboys

THE FACT. Eagles running back Saquon Barkley is officially active for Monday night's game against Dallas after missing two games with a hamstring injury, per NFL.com, which adds that he is off the injury report. NBC Sports' Rotoworld confirmed the active designation Monday.

THE VERDICT. He goes straight back into lineups. Redraft: start him, with the caveat that a first game back from a hamstring can come with a managed workload. DFS: playable in cash, and a reasonable pivot in tournaments if the field fades him over the injury. Dynasty: no change to his outlook. NFL.com notes Tank Bigsby and Will Shipley are both on injured reserve, so Philadelphia has little proven depth to lean on if it wants to ease him in.
