As rumors started swirling that the Eagles had been going to make a push to signal Saquon Barkley in free company, former Giants RB Tiki Barber gave warning that the love and respect Barkley has in New York can be gone if he went to Philly. Quick ahead a number of days and that’s precisely what is occurring, and Barber was fast to face on his phrase, telling the working again, “You’re useless to us.”
To be clear, it’s been reported by numerous insiders that the Giants didn’t even make Barkley a proposal. He was by no means going to be a part of their plan in 2024, even after giving them the good thing about the doubt in 2023 and taking part in on the franchise tag.
Nonetheless, apparently Barber is incensed that Barkley would choose to play for the Giants NFC East rival. That’s actually his opinion to have, however Barkley was not about to take it mendacity down. The latest Eagle RB clapped again on the notion he was screwing over the folks and teammates who supported him the previous six years.
@TikiBarber lol yup you’re the prime instance of loyalty to a workforce.. I obtained the deal I needed, secured extra gm which wasn’t given to me earlier than… so if followers are gonna hate me for that so be it! However I by no means turned my again on my teammates and all the time had theirs https://t.co/6aKgJquD0F

Barber infamously retired from the NFL in 2006, stunning his teammates and calling it quits on the peak of his profession — and with the Giants reportedly providing him one other profitable contract. As he transitioned into his TV profession, he made some feedback relating to Eli Manning and his management that turned loads of his former teammates and followers in opposition to him.
Barkley justifiably known as Barber out for his hypocritical stance on the RB’s subsequent transfer, and in doing so, is probably going gaining much more followers in Philly.
