The Philadelphia Eagles are listing Jordan Matthews as questionable to face the New York Giants in Week 16.
Fantasy football start/sit advice, Week 16: Jordan Matthews questionable for Eagles vs. Giants
The Eagles need Jordan Matthews to have any hope of having a functional passing game vs. the Giants.

Matthews has been dealing with an ankle injury that led to him missing Week 13. He has played in the two games since and was also a full participant in all three practices this week. Expect him to play Thursday, though expecting him to make an impact is another question.
In 13 games, Matthews has caught 71 passes for 792 yards and three scores. He has been the No. 1 receiver in one of the league’s worst passing offenses, making him a tricky fantasy play on a weekly basis.
Fantasy Impact: If he is active, Yahoo! ranks Matthews as the 40th-best wide receiver in Week 16. He would face a New York defense allowing the eighth-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers this season.
Even if he is active, keep Matthews on the bench this week.
