âHeâs dead to us now. Youâre dead to us, Saquon,â Barber said Monday. âGood luck, youâre dead to me.â
Barkley responded as only an Eagle could, calling the former Giants running back a “hater.”
@TikiBarber you been a hater since I got to New York ⌠and all the âDead to meâ talk donât smile in my face when you see me

The Eagles and Giants are already must-see TV every season, but the two games this year will certainly be prime-time affairs, especially after New York acquired Brian Burns via trade.
Here’s social media reaction to the back and forth.
