The Facts: Gainwell has been ruled out for the Eagles Thursday night Week 2 game against the Vikings.

Diehards Line:Gainwell, who was the primary back in the team’s Week 1 win over the Patriots, suffered a rib injury in that contest. With a short turnaround this week, Gainwell won’t be available to reprise that role. D’Andre Swift is likely the next man up, but it’s reasonable to believe Rashaad Penny will be active after being a healthy scratch last week. Boston Scott could be a factor are well.
