The Philadelphia Eagles will be without star running back Saquon Barkley for Sunday's Week 6 game against the Carolina Panthers due to a hamstring injury, further compounding the team's offensive struggles. Barkley has been battling the injury since their Week 4 loss to the Los Angeles Rams and has missed multiple games. With quarterback Jalen Hurts also sidelined by a calf blood clot, Philadelphia faces a challenging task as they aim to break their three-game losing streak.
The absence of two key offensive players leaves the Eagles in a tough position, relying heavily on their running game and short passes to help backup quarterback Tanner McKee. Dameon Pierce, Carson Steele, and Will Shipley are expected to fill in at running back, but their contributions may be limited by Philadelphia's injured reserve placements.
The team will need to find a way to overcome these setbacks and secure a victory in order to turn things around.
