Saquon Barkley lead the Philadelphia Eagles to an incredible season capped by a Super Bowl championship, but now Barkley continues to get the recognition he deserves. Barkley was named the NFL Madden 2026 cover athlete, but who could be on next year's edition? A tandem like Ja'Marr Chase and Joe Burrow would be unique, but Jayden Daniels could be the NFL's biggest rising star and could make a compelling argument. Two NFL tight ends could be on the move in Atlanta Falcon Kyle Pitts and Miami Dolphin Jonnu Smith. Is it smart to move on from these less-than-elite weapons? Finally, with Frank Ragnow retiring from the Detroit Lions, the noise about a potential regression from Dan Campbell's NFC champions keeps getting louder.
