The Houston Texans and Philadelphia Eagles made smart moves this offseason by acquiring running backs Joe Mixon and Saquon Barkley, respectively.
Mixon, who joined the Texans in a trade, and Barkley, who signed with the Eagles, both had impressive Week 1 performances, leading their teams to victory.
Mixon led the league in rushing yards and attempts, while Barkley scored two rushing touchdowns and one receiving touchdown.
These standout performances suggest that Mixon and Barkley could be key players for their respective teams throughout the season.
