Saquon Barkley Stands Up to Eagles Fans Who Booed Taylor Swift at Super Bowl

Saquon Barkley is defending Taylor Swift after she was booed by Eagles fans during the Super Bowl on Sunday. Swift, who attended the game with her boyfriend Travis Kelce, seemed confused when fans showered her with boos upon her appearance on screen.

“I don’t get it,” Barkley said in an interview with Howard Stern via NBC. “I don’t understand why she was getting hate there.” The Eagles star believes Swift’s presence is helping to expand the NFL’s international reach and attract new fans.

Swift has been a regular at Chiefs games since her relationship with Kelce started, which has led to a significant influx of new attention for the league. Barkley praised Swift’s role in promoting the game, saying she “made the game bigger.” The Eagles’ win snapped hopes of a title three-peat for the Chiefs and capped a historic season for Barkley, who broke records for rushing yards in both the regular season and playoffs.
