Saquon Barkley opens up about what Giants told him after Eagles Super Bowl win
NY Post
Saquon Barkley — like so many others — has seen the viral “Hard Knocks” clip where Giants owner John Mara admitted he would lose sleep if the Eagles signed the star running back.
Well, Philadelphia did just that and won a Super Bowl with Barkley front and center all year.
On the “Tonight Show” on Tuesday with Jimmy Fallon, Barkley — and fellow Eagles teammate Jalen Hurts — were shown the clip from the now-infamous episode from the offseason edition of the HBO program.
When asked by Fallon if he had heard from the Giants since he won the Super Bowl, Barkley answered in the affirmative and said the messages were all positive.
On top of that, Barkley said the snippet from the show does not color how he feels about Big Blue.
“That clip doesn’t really display my relationship I have with that organization from top to bottom. They are the people that brought me in. After the game, so many guys and people from that organization reached out to me and were super happy, one, for my birthday and see me hold that Lombardi Trophy up because they know the hard work that I put in. That clip is in the past. I’m happy to be an Eagle.”

NEW ORLEANS — One of the biggest winners of Super Bowl 2025 hasn’t yet played a snap in the NFL.
After devouring film from the ugly defeat to the Celtics, Jalen Brunson believes the Knicks showed improvement — at least improvement from the low bar of the season opener — and saw evidence that his team can compete with the reigning champs.
It’s kind of funny if you think about it. For years, for decades — hell, for damn near half a century — it was the Yankees who would cause others in major league baseball to shake their heads, raise a fist, and make angry, bitter exclamations.
