Barkley sat out a play, but then came back in and finished off the opening drive with an 8-yard TD run. While the Eagles were on defense, Barkley was on the exercise bike.
Barkley then carried the ball twice on the Eagles' next drive, but came out for a long stretch as Dameon Pierce took over. Barkley did carry the ball twice as the Eagles' reached the Cowboys 12 on that drive, but then came out as Pierce finished out the drive with a 5-yard TD run.
Barkley was seen getting his hamstring worked on while the Eagles were on defense, at one point lying down on the team bench as trainers attended to him. Barkley got in for one play on the Eagles' next drive, lost three yards on a pass, then came out.
If anything, Barkley is having his playing time closely monitored.
