Saquon Barkley is surrounded by talent in Philadelphia that he could have only dreamed about during his six years in New York.
Saquon Barkley felt a little weird wearing green the first time he put his new Philadelphia Eagles jersey on. But that was nothing compared to what he felt the first time he jogged onto the field and joined the Eagles' huddle. That was truly an experience the 27-year-old running back has never had before. 'The biggest thing that struck me is our first 7-on-7 huddle,' Barkley said last week. 'You see A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, Dallas Goedert and Jalen Hurts.
They have combined for an absurd 370 catches, 5,214 yards and 32 touchdowns in two seasons together — or an average of 93-1,304-8 per season, each. In New York, Barkley played with one receiver who even approached those numbers — Odell Beckham, who was 77-1,052-6 in 12 games when Barkley was a rookie. Not coincidentally, that was Barkley's best receiving year, when he had 91 catches for 721 yards. After that, Beckham was traded and the Giants' receivers went off a cliff.
