Saquon Barkley more concerned about postseason than Pro Bowl

Saquon Barkley did not make the Pro Bowl this year, but that is not the postseason contest he is most upset about missing.

“The Pro Bowl is dope,” he said on Thursday. “I went there last year, it’s an awesome experience. But it’s not the end all, be all. I don’t think I was even anywhere close to deserving to be in the Pro Bowl.”

Barkley has 722 rushing yards, is averaging almost a full yard less per carry than he did last season and has scored only five touchdowns. He is an alternate, so he still might make it if enough running backs drop out of the event.
