The Eagles’ running back was voted Nickelodeon’s NVP in Week 1, and his daughter got to help him celebrate.
Saquon Barkley made one impressive debut for the Eagles in Week 1, finishing the season opener with a hat-trick of TDs, along with 26 total touches, including 24 runs for 109 yards and two catches for 23 yards. The running back not only won NFC Offensive Player of the Week, but he was voted Nickelodeon’s NVP for Week 1, which included a fun bonus activity for his daughter.

Barkley gets a cool trophy for the honor, and as he mentioned in the video, the fact that his daughter got to be the one to pour the slime made it all the more special. Getting to slime your dad has to be super cool, and something she’ll remember for a long time — it’s also adorable how she says “Go Eagles” before emptying the bucket.
It was exciting to see what the new running back will get to do in the Eagles offense, and hopefully this was among just the first of many accolades he’ll receive throughout the season.
