Saquon Barkley Emerges as MVP Contender with Historic Performance

The Eagles running back's record-breaking season has reignited the possibility of a non-quarterback winning MVP for the first time since 2012.

Saquon Barkley rushed for 255 yards in Week 12, the most by an Eagles player in a single game and the ninth-highest in NFL history.
Barkley leads the league in rushing yards with 1,392 and is on pace to potentially break the single-season rushing record set by Eric Dickerson in 1984.
His impact has been pivotal to the Eagles' success, powering their seven-game winning streak and a 9-2 record atop the NFC East.
Barkley has also contributed as a receiver, with 33 receptions for 257 yards and two touchdowns, showcasing his versatility in Philadelphia's offense.
If Barkley maintains his dominance, he could become the first non-quarterback to win the NFL MVP award since Adrian Peterson in 2012.
