Should I start Myles Price or Saquon Barkley this week? Week 8 PPR (2026)

BEFORE YOU DECIDE

Check availability before choosing

Myles Price: One source has him at zero while another expects points. Check his game status before relying on this comparison. Saquon Barkley: His availability is unresolved. Recheck his status before kickoff; a projection is not confirmation that he will play. FantasyPros estimates a 28% chance of playing (checked Oct 28, 3:25 AM ET). His projections are shown below, but this comparison needs an availability check. Check back later this week for updated projections and injury news before setting your lineup.

  • Myles Price: 1.5 FP recent scoring average; 7.5% matchup lift against DET.
  • Saquon Barkley: 15.1 FP recent scoring average; 2.5% matchup reduction against WAS.
