PHILADELPHIA -- Jihaad Campbell isn't afraid to go after any opponent, no matter the status of the player. When Saquon Barkley was coming in Campbell's direction with the football, Campbell wasn't afraid to put his helmet in and give the 2,000-yard running back a hard hit to the ground.

With the 31st overall pick in the very first round of the 2025 NFL draft, the Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles selected Alabama Crimson Tide linebacker Jihaad Campbell, and he's already making an impression to his teammates, Saquon Barkley in particular.

PHILADELPHIA — Saquon Barkley couldn’t have had a better first season with the Philadelphia Eagles. Barkley broke records and became the ninth player to ever to rush for 2,000 yards in a single season. He was named the NFL’s Offensive Player of the Year. And of course, he propelled the Eagles on a Super Bowl run. It was all pretty memorable.
