Barkley Nears NFL Rushing Record with Eagles

Saquon Barkley is on the verge of breaking the NFL single-season rushing record set by Eric Dickerson in 1984. Barkley has amassed 1,623 rushing yards this season with the Eagles, surpassing LeSean McCoy’s franchise record of 1,607 yards set in 2013. With four remaining games, Barkley needs 482 yards to tie Dickerson's record of 2,105 yards, requiring an average of about 120.5 yards per game, which aligns with his current pace of 124.8 yards per game.
