What Saquon Barkley's retirement talk means for the Eagles
Saquon Barkley has had a whirlwind offseason following the Eagles' Super Bowl win over the Kansas City Chiefs in February. Philadelphia's All-Pro running back made waves for a golf outing with President Trump, attended the MET GALA, and served fans cheesesteaks at Geno's after landing the cover of Madden NFL 26. Barkley is loving life, but a recent interview has some Eagles fans nervous about the future. During the most recent edition of the 'Green Light with Chris Long,' Barkley hinted at a looming retirement. 'That's a great question. I'll probably be one of those guys that it would be out of nowhere. I would probably just wake up one day, whether it's next year or two years or four years, and just be like, 'Yeah, it's over.'' Advertisement Barkley then referenced the legendary Barry Sanders, who walked away from the Detroit Lions and peacefully left millions on the table with his decision. 'One of my favorite players of all time, probably my favorite player of all time, is Barry Sanders, so probably similar to that. Maybe one day it will be out of nowhere. I'll probably be ballin' and just be like, 'Yeah,' and call it quits.' Barkley could just be talking and experiencing the varied emotions of an all-time great season and his mortality as a legendary running back who doesn't want to exit the game with a down year or multiple injuries. With Philadelphia five days from a mandatory minicamp, we're examining how Barkley's comments will impact the Eagles. Nov 3, 2024; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA; Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley (26) score on a 19-yard touchdown run during the second quarter against the Jacksonville Jaguars at Lincoln Financial Field. Mandatory Credit: Eric Hartline-Imagn Images Barkley's 2024 workload Likely still experiencing some fatigue, Barkley could spend the summer and training camp in bubble wrap after 482 total touches during the 17-game regular season and four-game jaunt to a Super Bowl. According to The Athletic, of the 11 running backs since 2000 with 400+ carries in a single season, none have finished inside the top 15 the following season. That list includes Derrick Henry, Jamal Lewis, and Shaun Alexander. Philadelphia signed A.J. Dillon in free agency, and Will Shipley is a talented dual-threat. With 13 picks in the 2026 NFL draft, the Eagles could add another rusher next year. Barry Sanders affect Sanders rushed for 2,053 yards in 1997, and then the Lions running back only played one more season before walking away. An Eagles repeat could set the table for Barkley to exit stage left, or the running back could play out the deal, ensuring ten years in the NFL. Financial implications Barkley led the charge for running backs to be paid more, and the Eagles running back reset the market entirely, becoming the highest-paid ball carrier in NFL history. Advertisement According to Adam Schefter, the two-year, $41.2 million deal makes Barkley the NFL's first $20+ million a year running back and the highest paid at the position in league history. According to Over The Cap, the extension creates $1,332,000 in salary cap space. Timetable As long as Barkley maintains his elite status, he'll be around until 2027 at the earliest. Barkley's salary isn't guaranteed for 2028, and he has a void year established for 2029 when he'll be 32 years old and count $31 million against the salary cap. The new contract is fully guaranteed for $36 million at the time of signing. The full guarantee includes Barkley's 2025 and 2026 salaries, workout bonuses, and option bonuses. $2.5 million is guaranteed in 2027. Another $15 million in incentives is available.
