WATCH: Former Penn State, Current Giants RB Saquon Barkley Scores 1st Playoff TD

Published

Saquon Barkley

It turns out Saquon Barkley is pretty good in the playoffs, too.

The former Penn State RB and current New York Giant scored on a 28-yard run in the first quarter of New York’s wildcard playoff game against the Vikings in Minnesota.

This is the first playoff game Barkley has played in since entering the NFL in 2018 after a stellar three-year career at Penn State. The Giants lead the Vikings 14-7 in the first quarter.
