Saquon Barkley has moved on from the New York Giants, but that doesn't mean his father, a diehard New York Jets fan, is going to start wearing his son's jersey.
Saquon Barkley’s move to the NFC East rival Philadelphia Eagles was a shocking reality for most New York Giants fans. But one fan, arguably Barkley’s biggest, is likely unfazed by the decision. During Wednesday’s appearance on the 'New Heights' podcast with Jason and Travis Kelce, Barkley revealed his father, Alibay Barkley, would undoubtedly root for his New York Jets if they were to ever face the Eagles in a Super Bowl.
Barkley signed a three-year deal for $26 million guaranteed with the Eagles earlier this month after six years with the Giants. The deal had its critics, most notably Giants legend Tiki Barber, who said the running back was 'dead to me' after news broke. During the podcast, Barkley revisited the issue. He said while he understood fans’ position, he was surprised by Barber, who should’ve understood the 'business side' of his decision. 'I love seeing NFL guys.
