Eagles player to watch
Barkley faces the team that drafted him second overall in the 2018. In 74 games with New York, Barkley rushed for 5,211 yards — the fourth most in Giants history — and had 47 touchdowns (35 rushing, 12 receiving). He was the AP NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year. He signed with the Eagles as a free agent this year.
Giants player to watch
Rookie WR Malik Nabers cleared the concussion protocol and it’s possible he could be returning to the lineup after missing two games. The No. 6 overall draft pick was leading the league with 35 receptions after four weeks. His three touchdowns still lead the team.
Key matchup
Both defensive lines against the left tackle. The Eagles’ Jordan Mailata is out for a few weeks with a hamstring injury. The Giants are without Andrew Thomas for the rest of the season following foot surgery Wednesday. Backup tackle Fred Johnson or Mekhi Becton could replace Mailata. If Becton moved from right guard, he would have to be replaced. The Giants can have Josh Ezeudu start at left tackle, or move right tackle Jermaine Eluemunor to the left side and then start either Evan Neal or Ezeudu at right tackle.
Key injuries
Eagles: Mailata (hamstring) and TE Dallas Goedert (hamstring) left the game against the Browns and are out. CB Darius Slay (knee), LB Oren Burks (groin), OLB Jalyx Hunt (ankle) and DT Milton Williams (ankle) are on the injury report. … Giants: Thomas is done for the season. DT Dexter Lawrence (hip), OLB Brian Burns (groin), P Jamie Gillan (hamstring), RB Devin Singletary (groin), WR Wan’Dale Robinson (ankle), WR Darius Slayton (groin) are on the injury report.
