Barkley's 2024 big runs set template for Eagles' early run-game emphasis in 2026.

Saquon Barkley's 20-plus-yard runs in 2024 opened the field for Jalen Hurts, and the Eagles are expected to lean into the run game early in 2026. The Eagles have the offensive line to replicate that success, making Barkley a focal point of the early-season offensive strategy under new coordinator Sean Mannion.
