Social Media Reacts
Here’s what people were saying:
Eliot Shorr-Parks: “Saquon Barkley is slow to get up. Looks like his left arm. On the sideline now with trainers and going right into the medical tent”
EJ Smith: “Saquon Barkley is running indoors with trainers. He’s holding his chest as he jogs. #Eagles”
@PHLEaglesNation: “Saquon Barkley is running (worth noting) to the locker room.”
@DrJesseMorse: “Saquon Barkley Possible left shoulder injury. Here’s the play but the injury/mechanism is not obvious. Despite being in the red zone, Saquon headed to the locker room under his own power. It’s possible he’s getting x-rays (shoulder, neck?).”
@thomasrp93: “Barkley is hurt. Another tackle behind the line of scrimmage and his shoulder is hanging. #Eagles”
Emmanuel Acho: “First Eagles play from scrimmage with its new look offensive line: Saquon Barkley gets tackled for loss and then leaves the game injured. 🤮”
@DiBonaNFL: “Eagles lined up in two-by-two in 12-personnel to start the game with a Saquon Barkley run. It looked like Cam Jurgens was beat and Barkley was tackled for no gain and hurt on the play.
Looking At Barkley
Barkley is in the middle of his third season with the Eagles.
He had spent the first six years of his NFL career with the New York Giants.
