Barkley will appear in his first Super Bowl when the Birds take the field February 9 in New Orleans. And Birds fans can already commemorate the occasion with a Barkley jersey featuring the Super Bowl patch — an item that was selling rapidly within an hour of Philly's win.

Barkley got his start at Whitehall High School in Whitehall, Pennsylvania, where he was also a star running back for the Whitehall Zephyrs. He came to know the Hartmans because Bob Hartman, Maisey and Zack's father, is the athletic director at Whitehall.

From his hospital room at Memorial Sloan Kettering a week and a half ago, Hamish Fenton made a decision that he knows won’t be popular with many of his fellow Giants fans. He will root for the Philadelphia Eagles to win Super Bowl LIX. He will root for Saquon Barkley.
