Parris Campbell claims Saquon Barkley combining with Eagles OL will be ‘pretty scary’ for the defenses in the NFL

The Philadelphia Eagles stole two players from the New York Giants this offseason. First, at the very beginning– star running back Saquon Barkley in a three-year deal, and then wide receiver Parris Campbell, last week. 

During an interview with the Philadelphia Inquirer’s Olivia Reiner last Saturday, Campbell expressed his excitement to play alongside Barkley once again, given he knows the level of dominance the running back holds over the football field. He also claimed that by combining the star RB with Philly’s solid offensive line, the franchise has created a scary offensive weapon. 

Running behind that offensive line that we have, I think it’s going to be pretty scary for defenses--You pair that with Jalen and the things he can do with his feet, just as far as extending plays, getting outside the pocket, I’m sure there will be some type of read-option game that we go on and RPO stuff that’ll happen. So just the possibilities of it are endless. said Parris Campbell

Even though the Eagles’ star center Jason Kelce retired this offseason, their offensive line still stands as one of the best offensive lines across the league. Moreover, having a star dual-threat as their quarterback Jalen Hurts combined with solid offensive weapons, the Eagles have made themselves one of the most difficult offenses.
