Saquon Barkley says his standout season—with over 2,000 rushing yards, an NFL Offensive Player of the Year award, and a Super Bowl run—coincided with him deepening his Christian faith. He said, “I don’t think it’s a coincidence.”
Though he admits he doesn’t “know the Bible in and out,” Barkley has been growing spiritually—studying Scripture through Bible sessions with his agent, who is also a pastor.
Barkley openly talks about faith among teammates and in media appearances. Ahead of Super Bowl LIX, he said honing his relationship with God helped bring “clarity in life”—a foundation for his top-tier play.
