Saquon Barkley, Austin Ekeler, NFL Injury Statuses and Fantasy Impact for Week 4

Two of the NFL's top running backs may not be on the field in Week 4.

Saquon Barkley and Austin Ekeler's injury recoveries have not progressed enough for them to have positive injury designations ahead of their respective games.

That means it could be another tough week for fantasy football players looking to fill their running back depth charts.

De'Von Achane and Jerome Ford emerged as the top waiver-wire pickups over the last two weeks, but if those players are not available in your league, you may have to find some waiver-wire gems to make up for Barkley and Ekeler's expected production while they continue to heal.
