AJ Brown on Saquon Barkley: “I think he’s the best in the world”

As the Eagles get ready for their Sunday night football matchup against the Rams, AJ Brown admitted he recently had a change of heart for the MVP.

The wide receiver explained that he loves Derrick Henry, but after Saquon Barkley pulled the reverse interception, Brown had to reevaluate his choice.

“I think (Saquon Barkley is) the best in the world and I love Derrick (Henry).”

Brown played with Henry when they were both in it Tennessee Titansso there’s nothing but love in this recent decision, but Barkley has taken the top spot. The Eagles WR also admitted he talked to head coach Nick Sirianni about this a few weeks ago, saying Henry was still the best running back he’s ever played with — but then Barkley jumped over someone backwards and Brown got to rethink things. .

“(Saquon Barkley is) incredible, man. You know, he’s definitely touched by God, man. And he works hard, so I had to give him the nod.”

He’s not looking too far ahead, but noted that the Eagles-Ravens matchup in Week 13 should be a good show with both Henry and Barkley on the field.
