Eagles star running back Saquon Barkley was named NFC Offensive Player of the Month after his dazzling string of games over the past five weeks.
It is Barkley’s first career Player of the Month honor and the first Offensive Player of the Month award captured by an Eagle since A.J. Brown last October.

In wins over the Jaguars, Cowboys, Commanders, Rams, and Ravens, Barkley rushed for 733 yards, amassed 894 total yards, and scored seven touchdowns. Barkley leads the NFL with eight games with 100+ rushing yards in 2024. That is tied for the most such games in a season in Eagles history (Montgomery, 1981).
With 109 rushing yards over the next five games, he will surpass LeSean McCoy’s single-season franchise record of 1,607 set in 2013.
