Barkley was already a star and two-time Pro Bowler before he joined the Eagles this season. However, with far better pieces around him than he had with the Giants the 27-year-old has had the greatest year of his career. Rushing for over 2,000 yards and leading Philadelphia to the third-best record in the league this season.
The running back is special not just because of his God-given talents, but because he has the drive to be great. So he doesn’t need added motivation to have an electrifying performance this Sunday. However, this week YouTuber turner boxing star Jake Paul revealed he is a big fan of the NFL star and made him a wild offer in a video to promote his Betr Picks gambling company.
