News flash: Penn State running back Saquon Barkley is a total freak of an athlete, especially for someone still in college. His ability to run and jump, paired with his strength, seems almost superhuman at times. Barkley’s feats are nothing new to Penn State fans, but now he’s received some national recognition for his ability.
Bruce Feldman of Sports Illustrated released his annual Freaks list Friday. Feldman highlights the top athletes in college football who are workout warriors and who posses physical traits that are far superior to most.
40 players were on the list, with Barkley landing at the top.
