3 years agoPhiladelphia Eagles running back Jordan Howard (neck) was unable to practice on Wednesday, while rookie Kenneth Gainwell (ankle) was listed as limited with an ankle injury. Miles Sanders is out in Week 17 against the Washington Football Team due to a broken hand, so Howard would be in line for a significant role in the Eagles leading rushing offense if he can play. Boston Scott was a popular waiver-wire pickup this week with Sanders out and Howard iffy to play. If Howard is inactive as well, Scott would be Philly's featured back and would have high-end RB2 upside on Sunday. Gainwell is probably only worth using as an RB3/flex option in PPR leagues if Howard is unable to get cleared against Washington. We'll continue to monitor Howard's status all week.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
