If you're a Barkley manager, you have been patiently waiting for the star RB to take the field and help you forget an incredibly disappointing 2025 campaign. After lighting the league on fire in 2024, Barkley followed up his historic season with an RB14 finish and fewer than 10 touchdowns. The Eagles are primed for a bounce-back season and have made some substantial changes. Last year, Kevin Patulo was one of the worst offensive coordinators in the league. Thankfully, Sean Mannion is taking over and giving the offense hope despite trading away A.J. Brown. With Barkley turning 30 this season, there are some age concerns and potential red flags with his dip in efficiency metrics last season. However, opening the season against their division rival Commanders is a perfect time for the star back to prove he hasn't lost a step and is ready for another incredible season.
