Saquon Barkley Wants to 'Go to War' for Eagles OC Sean Mannion
The Philadelphia Eagles are entering yet another season with a new offensive coordinator in 2026, playing under Sean Mannion.
In the 2026 season, the Philadelphia Eagles will be under the guidance of new offensive coordinator Sean Mannion. Saquon Barkley, the team's star running back, has been effusive in his praise for Mannion, describing the new coordinator as someone he would "go to war for." Mannion's work ethic is lauded by Barkley, who said the first person in and last to leave the building.
Barkley's performance in his debut season with the Eagles in 2024 was electric, as he rushed for 2,005 yards in 16 games, contributing to the team's Super Bowl victory. However, under the previous offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo in 2023, Barkley's rushing numbers dropped significantly. Barkley aims to regain his form and contribute to the Eagles' success under Mannion's new system in 2026.
The Eagles will kick off their regular-season campaign against the Washington Commanders on September 13th.
