Barkley Credits Faith for Record Season, Faces Warnings

News summary

Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley, who joined the team after six seasons with the New York Giants, credits his recent conversion to Christianity for his record-breaking 2024 NFL season with over 2,000 rushing yards, an Offensive Player of the Year award, and a Super Bowl win. Barkley has spoken about how his faith brought clarity and a sense of destiny to his achievements, and his agent, who also serves as his pastor, has supported his spiritual growth. Analysts have cautioned that Barkley's historic workload could lead to regression in future seasons, referencing the 'Curse of 370' that often affects running backs after such high-usage years. Despite these warnings, Barkley's public faith journey has resonated with fans and led to speaking engagements at faith-based events. Barkley acknowledges he is still learning about his faith and attributes his personal and professional growth in part to his spirituality. He remains a central figure for the Eagles, both on and off the field.
