Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley spoke with members of the media (including Brooks Kubena of The Athletic) regarding a recent report that indicated he would not be dealt ahead of the Nov. 10 trade deadline. When asked about his future with the Eagles, Barkley said, "I would love to be here. I don't like the way the season's going. I'm not one of those guys that's like, 'Oh, the season's not going the way we (want). Let's just jump ship.'" Barkley also mentioned that he wants to be one of the reasons why the Eagles turn things around after their 2-6 start. The 29-year-old has dealt with a couple of different injury scares this season, playing in parts of six games so far. He has a modest 56 carries, 274 rushing yards, seven catches, 41 receiving yards, and two touchdowns to this point. A healthy Barkley ranks as a low-end RB1 in PPR leagues, so assuming he has shaken the injury bug, he should continue to be started in all leagues going forward.

New York Jets wide receiver Adonai Mitchell caught seven of nine targets for a team-high 142 yards and one receiving touchdown during Sunday's Week 8 loss against the New York Jets. Mitchell was coming off a frustrating Week 7 performance in which he caught zero passes on a 44% snap share, but he bounced back in a huge way against Vegas by out-producing both Garrett Wilson and Omar Cooper Jr. Along the way, Mitchell handled a 60.9% snap share, which is more than the previous week but still ranked third among the Jets' wide receivers. Sunday's huge performance represented the best fantasy output of Mitchell's career, and he remains an intriguing WR3/flex option heading into a projected negative game script environment against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 9. With that being said, the Jets' offense can probably only support two fantasy-relevant receivers, and one of them is Wilson. That leaves Cooper and Mitchell battling for meaningful volume going forward.

Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride caught seven of his eight targets for 72 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's Week 8 overtime win over the Dallas Cowboys. McBride caught four passes during his scoring drive alone, which helped pull the Cardinals within three points of Dallas late in the fourth quarter. The 26-year-old has now posted double-digit fantasy points (PPR) in each of his eight games this season, and he ranks as the overall TE1 in total scoring this season. The Cardinals' offense has shown that it can put up a fight in any given week, which has allowed McBride to maintain steady volume and production through the first half of the season. He has a tough stretch of schedule coming up against the Seahawks, Rams, and Chiefs, but he should continue to be started as a high-end TE1 in all fantasy leagues.

The Jacksonville Jaguars "haven't shown much inclination" to trade wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr., according to Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk. The Chiefs, Steelers, and Commanders have reportedly all shown interest in trading for Thomas, and Florio notes that the former first-round pick may also be looking for a fresh start. However, it doesn't sound like the Jaguars have much motivation to move on from him ahead of the Nov. 10 trade deadline. Thomas has been underwhelming this season, catching just four passes over his last five games. However, he does have two touchdowns during that span, including a trip to the end zone in Sunday's Week 8 win over the Colts. For now, it looks like Thomas will remain a Jaguar, leaving him in the No. 3 receiver role and keeping him off the fantasy radar in most leagues.
