He earned two Super Bowl rings as a member of the New York Giants, so it's understandable he received quite a bit of criticism from Big Blue fans.

Barkley was drafted No. 2 overall in 2018 by the Giants, who let him walk in free agency last offseason. The Eagles signed him and he put together the best season of his career. Barkley has run for 2,447 yards and 20 touchdowns through the regular season and playoffs.

But this year, Jacobs, perhaps reluctantly, will make an exception, as he revealed on social media that he’ll be rooting for running back Saquon Barkley, now with the Eagles, to win the big game. “Saquon deserves this one. Unfortunately, it’s for the Eagles, so I am rooting for him,” JAccobs posted on X (formerly known as Twitter).
