Eagles' Tank Bigsby Breaks Out With 104 Yards Rushing Against Giants

Tank Bigsby, recently acquired by the Philadelphia Eagles in a trade with the Jaguars, showcased a breakout performance with 104 yards on nine carries during the Eagles' 38-20 victory over the New York Giants. Prior to this game, Bigsby had seen minimal offensive action, mainly contributing on special teams, but his patience and persistence paid off as he demonstrated his explosiveness and ability to make big plays, earning praise from teammates and coach Nick Sirianni. Saquon Barkley also rushed for over 100 yards in the same game but left early in the fourth quarter with a groin injury, potentially opening up a larger role for Bigsby moving forward. This game marked the first time since 2013 that two Eagles running backs each surpassed 100 rushing yards in a single game. With the Eagles heading into a bye week, Barkley has time to recover, while Bigsby appears poised to solidify himself as the primary backup running back. Overall, Bigsby's emergence adds valuable depth and versatility to the Eagles' backfield.
