Eagles vs Bears Fantasy Players: Monday, September 28, 2026 | 8:15 p.m. ET
Monday Night Football gives fantasy managers one more chance to finish the week strong as Philadelphia visits Chicago. Our watch list starts with three Eagles—Jalen Hurts, Saquon Barkley and DeVonta Smith—plus Bears running back D’Andre Swift.
Here is what we’re watching, using FantasyLineups projections and the latest injury updates reviewed Sunday evening.
Jalen Hurts, QB — Philadelphia Eagles
Our model projects about 221 passing yards and 31 rushing yards for Hurts. His ability to contribute through the air and on the ground gives him multiple paths to fantasy production.
The key is how Philadelphia finishes its scoring opportunities. Passing touchdowns and quarterback rushing scores would put Hurts at the center of a strong fantasy night.
Saquon Barkley, RB — Philadelphia Eagles
Barkley returned to full practice after the stinger that shortened his previous game. We expect him to lead Philadelphia’s backfield, with our model projecting roughly 82 rushing yards and 18 receiving yards.
His early workload will be worth watching. If Philadelphia builds a lead, Barkley could benefit from additional carries as the Eagles try to control the second half. Last week’s injury-shortened performance should not be treated as his expected role.
DeVonta Smith, WR — Philadelphia Eagles
Smith has 19 targets through two games, and Dallas Goedert and Hollywood Brown being out strengthens his opportunity in Philadelphia’s passing attack.
Our model projects approximately six catches for 78 yards. He is our top receiver to watch in this matchup, particularly for fantasy managers who need reception volume. A touchdown would add to that outlook.
D’Andre Swift, RB — Chicago Bears
With Caleb Williams out and Case Keenum expected to start, Chicago’s offensive efficiency is a major question. Swift’s involvement as both a runner and receiver keeps him on our fantasy watch list.
Our model projects about 63 rushing yards and two catches. His receiving work could help if Chicago falls behind, although the quarterback change does not automatically guarantee more targets. Watch whether the Bears can sustain drives and keep Swift involved.
