Former Penn State running Back Saquon Barkley is not only making a case for NFL Comeback Player of the Year, he is making a case for NFL Offensive Player of the Year and possibly MVP consideration with another great NFL performance in week 7. He rushed for 110 yards on 24 carries and added 25 receiving yards in New York Giants’ 23-17 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Barkley is second in the NFL in rushing yards behind Nick Chubb of the Cleveland Browns with 726 on the season.
