It’s a time-worn Philadelphia tradition: fretting over the future rather than relishing the moment. As the city wrings its hands over the fate of its latest Super Bowl champion, few seem to appreciate that,

Before the Philadelphia Eagles took down the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX, Saquon Barkley delivered a fiery speech that showcased his confidence they would win before kickoff.

Following the Eagles’ dominant 40-22 win over the Chiefs, the Eagles released behind-the-scenes footage from the lead-up to that Super Bowl 59 win. It included the team meeting the night before the game at the hotel. And that was when the Eagles running back told his teammates what he saw in his film study:

Saquon Barkley revealed why he invested in the financial tech company Ramp and discussed how quickly the company's first Super Bowl ad came together.

After hugging the ball boy, Barkley quickly snapped into action. He lifted the ball boy up over the fence and invited him to join the parade procession. Saquon Barkley saw the Eagles ball boy in the crowd and pulled him over the fence to join them in the parade.

Has any running back in NFL history done more or meant more to a Super Bowl champion than Saquon Barkley this year?

Philadelphia Eagles general manager Howie Roseman made the move of the offseason last year when he brought in Saquon Barkley on a three-year deal. Barkley led the NFL in rushing and was a key cog in Philly's Super Bowl LIX-winning run.
