Saquon Barkley, Jahan Dotson swap jerseys following Giants-Commanders game in Week 13
Saquon Barkley and Jahan Dotson made sure to meet up after the Giants-Commanders game on Sunday. The pair both played at Penn State while in college, but not at the same time.
Barkley left Penn State following the 2017 season and was selected by the New York Giants in the 1st round of the 2018 NFL Draft. Dotson played at State College from 2018-2021 and was taken 16th overall by the Commanders in the 2022 NFL Draft.
Washington and New York tied in overtime 20-20 on Sunday. Barkley finished the game with 63 yards rushing and 1 touchdown, while Dotson caught 5 passes for 54 yards receiving with 1 score.

Dotson is just a rookie, but is off to a good start. Dotson has played in 8 games and has 179 yards receiving and 4 touchdowns.
