Philadelphia Eagles fans weren't the only ones amazed by Saquon Barkley's dominant first quarter against the Washington Commanders on Sunday.

Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James gave a shoutout to Barkley in a post on X.

By the time the first quarter of Philadelphia's clash with Washington came to an end, the two-time Pro Bowl running back already picked up 109 yards and two touchdowns on a mere seven carries.

He helped head coach Nick Sirianni's team jump out to a 21-7 lead before the start of the second quarter.
