Jalen Hurts to Saquon Barkley for Eagles' first TD of the season
Written by I Dig Sports
SÃO PAULO -- It didn't take long for Saquon Barkley to make his presence felt.
The star running back scored the first touchdown of the season for the Philadelphia Eagles, hauling in an 18-yard pass from Jalen Hurts in the left corner of the end zone early in the second quarter.
Hurts lofted the ball over a pair of Green Bay defenders and Barkley snatched it and was able to stay in bounds to give Philadelphia a 7-6 lead.

The Eagles made a splash in free agency by signing Barkley to a three-year, $37.75 million deal. They were banking on the former New York Giant to be revitalized in a new environment, playing behind a top offensive line and alongside Hurts and playmakers, such as receivers A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith.
The early returns are good.
