Mic'd-up Saquon Barkley had a selfless response after the Eagles ran a tush push for Jalen Hurts at the 1

While the tush push isn't quite the automatic touchdown in the post-Jason Kelce era as it once was, it's still an incredibly tough play to stop when the Eagles get inside the two-yard line. It also means that Saquon Barkley misses out on some fantasy points.

He's OK with that, though. In fact, he's just happy that the tush push turns into six points for his team.

NFL Films released some mic'd-up video from Sunday's win over the Panthers. Barkley had a seven-yard run to get the Eagles to the one-yard line. And though the tweet doesn't mention that the Eagles gave Barkley another chance at the one, we got to hear the exchange as Jalen Hurts ultimately found the end zone on third down.

When Hurts tried to encourage Barkley after the running back's missed TD chance, Barkley responded that it was fine by him.

He said, "I don't care, bro. I'm trying to win. Let's get it."

That's what being a good teammate is all about. He's chasing wins -- not stats.
