The biggest loser of this year’s Super Bowl? New York Giants fans.

Giants fans will anxiously watch Sunday's Super Bowl that features their former star helping one of their biggest rivals.

He’s referring, of course, to the Philadelphia Eagles’ superstar running back who played the past six seasons in New York. Drafted by the Giants in 2018 with the No. 2 overall pick, Barkley was the face of the franchise. He was the most dangerous offensive weapon they had and by far the most popular player on the team.
