New York Giants News, 7/11 – Saqoun Barkley wins prestigious award

If 2,000 All-Purpose yards in his rookie season wasn’t enough, I don’t know what would have earned sensational running back Saquon Barkley to breakout player of the year for 2018.

Barkley, the Offensive Rookie of the Year for the NFL, won the prestigious award mentioned above at the ESPYs on Wednesday night. Securing the honor of Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young, Tennis player Naomi Osaka, and Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich, Barkley proved his worth once again.

Beyond his physical gifts, Saqoon’s class was on full display the award ceremony — check out the video of his speech below.
