Eagles quarterback Michael Vick has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Cowboys. This will be his second week on the sideline after suffering a hamstring strain in Week 5 against the Giants.
Michael Vick injury update: Nick Foles should have a nice fantasy day vs. the Cowboys
Nick Foles is going to start for the Eagles in Week 7. We break down the fantasy implications.
Evan Habeeb-US PRESSWIRE
Nick Foles is going to get the start this week and he's been on a torrid pace. On the season, he has a 128 passer rating, and he ripped up the Buccaneers to the tune of 296 yards and three scores in last week's easy win. He also hung 197 yards on the Giants in just a little over a half.
Vick’s hamstring injury doesn’t sound too serious and he seemed to give some indications that he was almost ready to play. This could get ugly should Foles continue to excel in his role as the starter.
Fantasy impact: Foles could very well be in for another big start against the Cowboys. Dallas will be without DeMarcus Ware, so Foles should have some time. He's been getting on the same page with DeSean Jackson, and even Riley Cooper turned in a 120-yard gem vs. the Bucs in Week 6. Foles is a low-end QB1 this week.
