In an ESPN article last month, an NFL offensive coach was critical of Barkley — something that clearly the Giants running back clearly seemed to be aware of.
“We call ‘em All-Pros with clickers in their hand,” Barkley said. “Running back is a tough position, but it’s easy to be there and watch football and watch on TV or even watch film and stop the clip and say he should have made that cut. I’ve been playing since I was 8 years old. By no means am I the perfect running back. I still got so much work to do.
