Saquon Barkley’s Girlfriend Has Everyone’s Attention Before Kickoff Sunday

It could be the Saquon Barkley show in Philadelphia on Sunday afternoon.  The Eagles are set to host the Rams in the NFC Divisional Round playoff game on Sunday. Kickoff for the game at Lincoln Financial Field is set for 2:20 p.m. E.T. Snow is reportedly in the forecast, as a major storm could be hitting much of the East Coast by mid-afternoon.

Up to six inches is reportedly possible in Philadelphia.  “Good morning! Our NBC10 weather team is expecting 3 to 6 inches of snow later this afternoon and it should be snowing during the Eagles Rams divisional playoff game. That means another snow game!” NBC Philadelphia’s John Clark shared.

That could mean a lot of carries for Barkley, the NFL’s leading rusher in 2024. The Eagles have the run game needed to succeed in a snow game.  Barkley’s longtime girlfriend, Anna Congdon, is probably ready to go on Sunday. She’s been turning heads on social media before kickoff throughout the season.

Anna Congdon, who has been dating Saquon since their Penn State days, has built up a big-time following on social media. She often posts on X, formerly known as Twitter, about her boyfriend’s special NFL season.  The girlfriend of the Philadelphia Eagles star running back has a big following on Instagram, too.

Barkley’s longtime girlfriend had a special message for him after he broke the 2,000 yards mark during the regular season.  “You outshine the morning sun,” Congdon wrote of Barkley, 27, following his regular season performance against the Dallas Cowboys.

NFL fans know that Barkley will need a big day against the Rams on Sunday, especially if it’s a snowy game.  “I need snow on Sunday. A Barkley 200 yard snow game in the playoffs…” one fan wrote.  “saquon barkley putting up two hundred yards rushing in the snow for a playoff win would heal me in ways no therapist could ever dream of,” one fan added.

Barkley had special plans for Sunday, too. He planned on reaching out to former Eagles running back LeSean McCoy, who rushed for 214 yards in a snow game against the Lions in 2013.
