Saquon Barkley’s wish to be a Giant for life will not be granted. Instead, he has flown the coop and is headed to the rival Eagles.

The star running back on the first day of free agency agreed to a three-year contract to trade blue for green and move on down the Jersey Turnpike to suit up for the Eagles. 

The deal is worth $37.75 million, with a guarantee of $26 million.

This will not sit well with all those Giants fans who bought Barkley’s No. 26 jersey and now will see him play for an NFC East opponent they despise.

Barkley posted a brief goodbye on X, writing “Thank you to everyone who has shown me love and support over the past 6 years… forever grateful! Excited for the next chapter.’’ He followed that up with two emojis of bald eagles.

With the Giants, Barkley endured five losing seasons in his six years, playing for three different head coaches.
