Saquon Barkley crossed the craziest obstacle you’ve ever seen

Saquon Barkley throws defender backwards

Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley made a move Sunday that has never been seen before and probably won’t be seen again.

Barkley intercepted a pass from Jalen Hurts on 3rd-and-6 early in the second quarter of the Eagles’ game against the Jacksonville Jaguars at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. After missing an attacker, Barkley broke away from another defender. and then blocked a third.

But this wasn’t just an obstacle. Barkley was looking in the exact opposite direction when he jumped over the defender:

You can see another angle:

Barkley is running with a purpose in his first season in Philly. He entered Sunday’s game having thrown for 766 yards and 6 total touchdowns on 130 carries. There will be plenty more highlights from the returning star this year, but we can almost guarantee none of them will be as impressive as his hurdle on Sunday.
