Eagles actively managed Barkley's workload; Pierce took more carries in first half.

Despite returning to the field, Barkley's workload was actively managed by the Eagles; after his first offensive drive touchdown, Dameon Pierce took on more of the workload through the rest of the first half. Through three quarters, Barkley was on the field for only 10 snaps and carried the ball each of those times, suggesting the Eagles were limiting his pitch count as part of a cautious return strategy.
