Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley's ongoing injury issues have prompted speculation that the team may pursue a trade for another running back. According to a trade pitch, the Eagles could target a former national champion at the position to bolster their backfield depth.

The Eagles' offense relies heavily on Barkley, but his durability concerns have led to discussions about adding insurance. The unnamed former national champion running back could provide a proven option behind Barkley.

No specific trade target has been identified, but the Eagles' front office is reportedly exploring options as the NFL trade deadline approaches.
