The Eagles are just days away from their final preseason game, and just over two weeks away from their season opener in Brazil. Now is not the best time to be dealing with injuries, especially to guys like Saquon Barkley. The running back had an injury scare during Tuesday’s practice, with a trainer stretching him as he laid down on the sideline.
Saquon Barkley is on the ground getting stretched out by a trainer during Eagles special teams drills. They’re also rubbing his lower back.

Barkley remained on the sideline but the running back never returned to the field for team drills the rest of practice.
