Saquon Barkley is having a tremendous season for the New York Giants. The former Penn State running back has helped the Giants to a surprising 7-3 record. Now, he is being recognized by the fans for his play.

Barkley is currently 3rd in the Pro Bowl Games vote with 68,936 entries. The event replaces the traditional AFC-NFC Pro Bowl game. The new concept will feature different football and non-football skill competitions amongst leading vote-getters.

Barkley has rushed for 953 yards on 213 attempts and 6 touchdowns. In addition, he has 31 catches for 210 yards. Against Tennessee, Barkley ran for a season-high of 164 yards on 18 carries and 1 touchdown. He also rushed for 146 yards against Chicago and 152 yards against Houston.

Barkley has had some tough seasons recently. He tore his ACL in week 2 of the 2020 season which forced him to miss the rest of the year. When healthy, he is one of the best running backs in the NFL.
