The Jacksonville Jaguars knew what they were facing as soon as they tried to tackle New York Giants rookie running back Saquon Barkley.
“I knew right away. The first run and the first couple of times I tackled him, I said, ‘this kid has something,’ ” All-Pro defensive end Calais Campbell said after the game.
Campbell made sure after the game that he found Barkley and swapped jerseys with the rookie.
“Coming into the NFL against a team like ours, and making some of the plays he made, that kid’s going to be special,” Campbell said.
