Saquon Barkley finished with 109 yards rushing and became just the second player in franchise history to score three touchdowns in his first game Friday night against the Packers.
— Running back Saquon Barkley scored three touchdowns in his Philadelphia Eagles debut to help lift his new team to a 34-29 win over the Green Bay Packers on Friday.
As a member of the Brazil media noted to Barkley afterward, that’s a “hat trick” in soccer parlance.
Barkley finished with 109 yards rushing and became just the second player in franchise history to score three touchdowns in his first game, joining Terrell Owens, who did it in 2004.
“He had a hell of a game tonight”, quarterback Jalen Hurts said.
