PHILADELPHIA –

Saquon Barkley is undeniably thrilled about Daniel Jones’ success. During conversations, Barkley’s face lights up when mentioning his friend and former teammate.

“Daniel Jones! Let’s go! That’s my dawg! I gotta FaceTime him (more). He texts me and says I never answer my phone calls,” said Barkley.

Barkley made sure to connect with Jones on FaceTime after a standout performance where Jones, now the starter for the Indianapolis Colts, completed 23 of 34 passes for 316 yards and a touchdown during a thrilling 29-28 victory against the Denver Broncos.

Through the opening two games, Jones has thrown for 588 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions, boasting a passer rating of 111.1. His impressive statistics place him at the top of the league in yards per attempt (9.3).

“The fact that he’s off to a hot start…seeing what he went through throughout camp, battling with AR [Richardson] over there, I was super excited for him to win that starting job,” Barkley commented.

Both players faced struggles during their time together with the New York Giants but are now experiencing success in their respective careers. While Barkley rushed for an NFL record 2,504 yards last season with the Eagles, Jones is turning heads with his performances, indicating a promising future for both beyond New York.
