Eagles fans responded accordingly. The storyline carried over into the second quarter, with Eagles running back Saquon Barkley getting in on the action. Barkley, a former New York Giant, had previously the wisdom of Verse's taunt.

Rams edge rusher Jared Verse said he did not like Eagles fans this week leading up to Sunday's divisional round game. The fans responded to his comments before the game.

Saquon Barkley broke free for a 62-yard touchdown run early in the Philadelphia Eagles playoff showdown with the Los Angeles Rams. That on its own would have been enough of a statement. But Barkley doubled down when he saw who was in his rear view.
