The New York Giants’ inability to strike up a long-term contract with running back Saquon Barkley continues to haunt them with each shiny new achievement the team’s 2018 first-round pick racks up with the dreaded Philadelphia Eagles.

One such hope was that the New York Giants would gain a mid-round pick for losing running back Saquon Barkley. The face of the franchise signed a three-year, $37.75 million contract with the Philadelphia Eagles and is a win away from the Super Bowl. New York, of course, won three games.

The Philadelphia Eagles will host the NFC Championship Game thanks to a historical performance by running back Saquon Barkley, who exploded for 232 total yards and two touchdowns on Sunday.

The Philadelphia Eagles’ star running back Saquon Barkley is rewriting the history books and stands as a top contender for the NFL’s highest individual honors.

Oddsmakers are expecting a massive game from Saquon Barkley on Sunday. DraftKings Sportsbook has set the Eagles running back’s rushing yards line at 130.5 against the Commanders in the NFC Championship Game in Philadelphia.

Saquon Barkley is having perhaps the best inaugural season of any Philadelphia athlete in the city’s history. He almost set the single-season rushing record, instead authoring a 2,000+ yard season. He’s had two insane postseason games in beating the Packers and Rams and is one step away from reaching the Super Bowl after years of toiling away in the depths of the New York Giants’ abyss.
