Now is not the time, Saquon Barkley says. Reflection comes at the end of this season, no matter the meaningfulness of its milestones. He’s resisting the sound of them toppling like towers. He won’t peek at the panorama of his production.

Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown, linebacker Zack Baun, offensive tackles Lane Johnson and Jordan Mailata were among the notable players who didn’t make it, but they still could get voted to the Associated Press 2024 NFL All-Pro team, which is selected by media members.

The Philadelphia Eagles coasted to a 20-13 victory in Week 18 over the New York Giants, even though they chose to rest most of their starters. That was a somewhat controversial decision due to Saquon Barkley's pursuit of the single-season rushing record, and Jason Kelce was not happy with the decision that the Eagles made.

Barry Sanders is one of nine men to rush for more than 2,000 yards in an NFL season, a select group that Saquon Barkley joined a couple of weeks ago. Sanders is now hoping Barkley becomes a member of another fraternity he is already a part of: running backs to win NFL MVP.

Few free agents in NFL history have gone on the kind of historical run that Saquon Barkley has with the Philadelphia Eagles in 2024. 2,005 yards rushing, 13 touchdowns, and over a five-yard per carry average followed Barkley in his first season with the Birds.
