It just got even harder for Giants fans to look at one of their biggest rivals.
On Thursday afternoon, the Eagles unveiled a video of former Giants running back Saquon Barkley donning their midnight green and white colors in a post on X.
Despite his new uniform, Barkley kept several of his typical accessories, including a visor and a black left-arm sleeve.
Eagles fans first had the opportunity to see Barkley in his new threads on April 15, when the team began its offseason training program — but not his authentic game jersey.
Barkley, who spent the first six seasons of his NFL career in New York, signed with the NFC East rival on a three-year, $37.75 million contract this offseason, becoming the fourth-highest-paid running back by average annual value.
Barkley’s return to Pennsylvania — where he attended high school and college — was sparked by the organization’s fundamental traits.
“From watching from afar, everything that they’re about,” Barkley explained in March. “The culture here, the fans here. Definitely got super excited about it.”
Understandably, Giants fans have been bitter about the move, but Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni seems to be relishing the villain role.
“Sometimes you see Giants fans around here, being so close. They give me a good ‘Go Giants!’” Sirianni said earlier in June. “I typically let it go, but if the guy gets me good enough, I usually say, ‘Got your best player!’”
Barkley and the Birds open the season on Sept. 6 against the Packers in Brazil.
The running back’s first game against the Giants will arrive in Week 7 at MetLife Stadium in what’s sure to be a hostile environment.
