Running back Saquon Barkley tried to lead his team on Sunday afternoon against the Washington Commanders. Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts suffered a concussion in the first quarter of the game, leaving the offense in the hands of backup Kenny Pickett.
Despite Philadelphia leading the majority of the game, a fourth-quarter surge by the Washington Commanders led to a 36-33 loss. Running back Saquon Barkley expressed his frustration over the team's loss and inability to lock up the second seed in the NFC. Barkley told reporters after the game that moving forward it's all about winning the final two games and not panicking at this point.
"It sucks. But at the end of the day, it is what it is. We're going to go out there and we're going to win every football game -- that's our mindset as a team. But at the same time, when we lose and we didn't do what we wanted to accomplish, we're not going to panic," Barkley told reporters after Sunday's loss.
