Saquon Barkley Reveals His Thoughts On Being With Eagles’ Offense
Over recent years, notable tension arose between the New York Giants and star running back Saquon Barkley over contract issues, with the team appearing willing to let him enter NFL free agency. Initially, it seemed Barkley would join the Houston Texans alongside quarterback C.J. Stroud, but he made a surprising decision to sign with the Philadelphia Eagles, a rival of the Giants. This move could significantly enhance the Eagles’ offense for the 2024 season.
In Philadelphia, Barkley joins an already talented offense, led by quarterback Jalen Hurts and supported by A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, Parris Campbell, and tight end Dallas Goedert. Barkley commented on his new teammates during OTAs, noting, “You get a huddle Day 1, and it’s A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, Dallas Goedert, Jalen Hurts…Not a bad group.” Despite past injuries, Barkley’s role in the Eagles’ dynamic and unpredictable offense is expected to bolster their NFC prospects significantly.
