Saquon Barkley, Bears and DeVonta Smith

The Eagles' estimated practice report for Tuesday shows that wide receiver DeVonta Smith is dealing with a couple of injuries heading into their Black Friday game against the Bears.
The Eagles had a walkthrough on Monday but released their initial injury report, with 11 players, including DeVonta Smith, having some designation. Smith arrived in Dallas late but had a standout performance in the loss. The veteran wide receiver would have been a non-participant if it were a real practice.
But on that play, Jalen Hurts went through his progressions and dumped the ball off to Saquon Barkley in the flat. From there, Barkley pulled off an incredible spin move and rumbled ahead for a 41-yard gain. On the very next play, Hurts hit DeVonta Smith for a 36-yard touchdown on a 50-50 ball. It was the Eagles’ only touchdown of the game.
DeVonta Smith made a clutch touchdown catch for the Eagles late into their win over the Packers. He's special, and none of that is lost on teammate Saquon Barkley.
