Steve Mariucci believes New York Giants’ Saquon Barkley has a shot at MVP

It was disappointing to witness what Saquon Barkley had to go through last season. Having suffered an ankle injury that slowed him down for much of the year, the New York Giants running back was nowhere near the type of player he was during his 2018 rookie campaign.

But ahead of the 2020 season, football fans all throughout are confident Barkley will be able to remain healthy and portray his superstar ability once again, with a former NFL head coach and current sportscaster actually taking it a step further.

“Six running backs have made MVP in the last 25 years, but they did something special like rush for 2,000 yards or break the rushing record like LaDainian Tomlinson did with 28 rushing touchdowns,” Steve Mariucci said during an appearance on NFL Total Access.
