Saquon Barkley's first season with the Eagles was nothing short of a dream campaign for the seventh-year back. With Philadelphia in 2024, Barkley became the ninth running back in NFL history to rush for at least 2,000 yards in a season, rushing for 2,005 yards and 13 touchdowns. After an incredible regular season, Barkley then helped the Eagles advance through the playoffs and defeat the Chiefs to win his first Super Bowl.
In the AFC, Derrick Henry's initial campaign as a Raven didn't disappoint either. Henry came close to his second 2,000-yard rushing season, going for 1,921 yards and a league-high 16 touchdowns. He and the Ravens fell short of reaching the Super Bowl, but he set the record for the most rushing yards by a running back aged 30 or older.
