Saquon Barkley Finds Humor in Manning's Take on 'Tush Push'

The Philadelphia Eagles have mastered the art of the unstoppable play, becoming a nightmare for defenders across the NFL. With a roster boasting stars like Saquon Barkley and an impressive passing game, their offensive strategy is tough to crack. The 'Tush Push' – a turbocharged version of the quarterback sneak – has been their secret weapon, particularly effective with quarterback Jalen Hurts at the helm.
During last season, the Eagles executed this play 22 times on fourth-and-one situations, converting 16 of those into first downs. Despite an attempt to ban it, the play continues to thrive, much to the chagrin of their opponents.

Peyton Manning Stirs Laughter with His 'Tush Push' Playful Analysis

In the latest ManningCast episode, Hall of Fame quarterback Peyton Manning offered a hilariously risqué breakdown of the 'Tush Push'. The segment had guest and Philadelphia star Saquon Barkley in stitches. Manning's colorful commentary included a step-by-step guide on how to perfect the play, amusingly instructing players to carefully coordinate their pushes.

“You gotta push the right butt cheek specifically. There’s three guys back there, one takes each cheek and one goes right down the middle. There’s room in there.”

Eli Manning couldn't contain his disbelief at the explicit description, prompting Saquon Barkley to chime in with laughter.

Barkley's Response to Manning's Cheeky Commentary

Barkley, finding amusement in Manning's breakdown, graciously praised his quarterback Jalen Hurts and the Eagles’ offensive line for their execution of the play. Despite Eli Manning's suggestion that "butt cheeks" might have been mentioned excessively, Barkley agreed with a chuckle, "Yeah, I would agree. We could probably not use the words ‘butt cheek,’ but to each his own."
Adding his own humorous twist, Barkley noted, “I kind of just aim for the push. I’m not really aiming at a spot to push. Gotta get the job done.” ManningCast, known for its Emmy-winning chemistry and witty insights, proves it's still got the magic as it kicks off its fifth season.
