Saquon Barkley runs for 70-yard touchdown vs. Rams

INGLEWOOD, Calif. – Saquon Barkley continues to build his case for league MVP.

He broke off a 70-yard run on the first play of the second half, giving the Philadelphia Eagles a 20-7 lead over the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday night.

Barkley shot through a sizable gap in the middle of the field, jumped off to set up a Britain Covey block, then raced the rest of the Rams defense down the right sideline for the score. It was his fifth rushing TD at 20 mph this season, which is already two more than any other player has had in a season since NFL Next Gen Stats started tracking speed in 2016.

The run put Barkley over 100 yards for the game. It’s his sixth game with 100 rushing yards and a rushing TD this season, the most in a single season in Eagles history.
