Running back Saquon Barkley is taking every step necessary to be sure he’s ready to play through the snow, telling reporters on Friday that he planned to call up former Eagles running back LeSean McCoy for tips before kickoff.

Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley praised teammate and quarterback Jalen Hurts on Friday, complimenting his drive and desire for greatness.
With a game-best -165 odds, Barkley’s anytime touchdown prop was the most popular of the day at BetMGM, followed by Marvin Mims (+260) and Josh Allen (-130), who both also failed to score in the earlier Broncos-Bills game.
Philadelphia's Saquon Barkley believes that Rams' Jared Verse calling out Eagles fans was 'probably not the smartest thing to say.'
Saquon Barkley set a franchise record with 255 yards rushing in Philadelphia’s 37-20 victory over the Los Angeles Rams on Nov. 24 and had touchdown runs of 70 and 72 yards.
Barkley rushed for a career-high 2005 yards this season to become the ninth player in NFL history to rush for 2,000 yards in a single season. Barkley also had a career-best 13 rushing touchdowns and was a major factor in the Eagles playing their way to an NFC East Division championship and the no. 2 seed in the NFC playoffs.
