Saquon Barkley will arrive at the NovaCare Complex on Tuesday for his first training camp as a member of the Philadelphia Eagles.
The electric running back is still one of the top players in the game at his position, and the respect from his peers is still prevalent, as Barkley landed at No. 86 on the NFL’s Top 100 players list for 2024.

Barkley played six seasons with the Eagles’ NFC East rival. In 74 career games with New York, the 27-year-old rushed 1,201 times for 5,211 yards and 35 touchdowns. Barkley was also a weapon in the passing game, tallying 288 receptions for 2,100 yards and 12 touchdowns.
He’ll now give Jalen Hurts and the Eagles a dynamic, three-down running back that should flourish in Kellen Moore’s offensive system while opening things up for A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, and Dallas Goedert.
