Saquon Barkley is putting on a show again.
The Philadelphia Eagles are leading the Washington Commanders, 21-7, at Northwest Stadium in Landover, Maryland on Sunday afternoon. Philadelphia lost starting quarterback Jalen Hurts to a possible concussion, but it’s no worry for the Eagles – not right now, anyway – as Barkley has been able to carry the load.
The former New York Giants running back has already rushed for 109 yards and two touchdowns on just seven carries. While Bills quarterback Josh Allen is rightfully getting a lot of MVP talk, Barkley might be the most deserving player at this point.
Jason Kelce thinks Barkley needs to break the NFL‘s single-season rushing record of 2,105 yards to win it.
“I don’t think he gets MVP unless he breaks that record & I think that would be the one thing that would put him potentially in that conversation,” Kelce said on SportsRadio 94WIP. “If he gets that record and the Eagles clinch the bye and the No. 1 seed … I don’t know how you don’t give it him.”
Barkley is already winning off of the field, though. He’s dating Anna Congdon, who he’s been with since his college days at Penn State. The couple, which is engaged to be married, has two children.
Barkley’s longtime girlfriend has a big following on social media. Anna, who has been bragging about her soon-to-be husband on X and Instagram, has shared a lot of sizzling swimsuit photos to her page over the years.

Clearly, Barkley is a winning man, both on and off of the field. He’s having the best year of his career with the Eagles so far, after leaving the Giants in free agency.
