Saquon Barkley finished with 2,005 rushing yards this season, 101 short of setting a new single-season record despite sitting out Week 18.
Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley is nipping at the heels of the all-time single-season rushing record — Dickerson’s 2,105 yards, secured with the Los Angeles Rams in 1984 — but the record-holder doesn’t think Barkley’s going to finish the job.
Barkley and some other regular starters will rest vs. the Giants. Eagles coach Nick Sirianni said Howie Roseman, Jeffrey Lurie and others, including Barkley, were consulted.
Saquon Barkley is 101 yards away from breaking Eric Dickerson’s single-season ... Barkley won’t play in Week 18’s finale against the New York Giants, per head coach Nick Sirianni.
Dickerson's mindset is the same as Barkley's at this point. In 1984, the Los Angeles Rams star lost in the first round of the playoffs to the New York Giants. His record, while special, did not include a Super Bowl ring.
Dickerson broke O.J. Simpson's previous rushing yards record in 1984, almost a decade after the former Heisman Trophy winner set his mark. Now, 40 years after Dickerson's incredible feat, Barkley has the chance to make his own history... and hopefully the Eagles give him that chance.
Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni said that key starters, including running back Saquon Barkley, will rest against the Giants.
NFL Hall of Famer Eric Dickerson can breathe easy knowing his single-season rushing record will remain intact for at least another year. The Philadelphia Eagles have announced they'll rest star running back Saquon Barkley in their regular-season finale against the New York Giants, leaving him just short of Dickerson's historic mark.
Jason Kelce, co-host of the New Heights podcast, addressed misleading comments about his views on an NFL playoff game. He clarified the context of his remarks regarding the Houston Texans-Los Angeles Chargers matchup.
Saquon Barkley had an opportunity to set the single-season rushing record, needing just 101 yards to pass Eric Dickerson in the season's final game. Barkley stayed at 2,005 rushing yards, as the Philadelphia Eagles had nothing to play for in the final week of the regular season -- having the NFC East title and No.
