Amazing character! Meanwhile I remember being a sophomore in HS amd the coaches wanted some of us to play on the freshman squad vs our biggest rival. Any play where I got the ball I ran right into the middle of the Def line and let 4 guys drag me down for a yard or two instead of bouncing outside for 80.

I have to comment one more time. Cause this video got straight to my heart.. this is the most selfless thing I've ever seen from a player that wants to see his younger players get some plays. Letting them get reps is getting them experience is going to pay off towards the end of the season. Shaquan Barkley your worth every penny my man!

[@Trytodoright]

What an awesome young man, stepping aside to give others a chance. Praying God’s continued blessings for he and his family.

[@nybirdman]

As a giants fan, but more importantly a stand up man, I wish Saquon nothing but the best. He was a stand up player for us for years and although I hate to see him on the eagles, we had to part ways with him. He’s too good and a solid dude to NOT be playing with a contender. Us true giants fans wish him nothing but the best but we definitely would’ve like to see him on the Vikings or something. 😂

[@rshapzeee858]

Man watching this brings a bunch of emotion. My dude sitting there with the opportunity to beat a PR, and he's giving it up for other teammates to get some playing time. Heck of a leader right there. I also feel some sadness for him seeing his scar on his knee and wondering how that surgery will affect the rest of his career and the accomplishments he could have achieved being on a better team that didnt do him dirty like the Giants did. Dude deserved better but I'm glad he got it before his career ended.

I honestly couldn’t make up a better character building/showing moment. It’s your first game against your old team, rivalry game, has a chance to break his game high with them, against them and he doesn’t even hesitate to turn down that opportunity. Knowing if he goes back out so does the whole starting unit, there isn’t a moment of selfishness

Facts

[@LawrenceFerrari]

What a great pickup for us! We all know that at least 90% of players would have said let me get it and then I'll sit out of the game. I have the utmost respect for this man. 😎👑💪

[@damoreahmitchell6863]

Yeah as they should. Contracts in the NFL aren’t guaranteed. Your performance is what gets you paid, not sitting out. I’m not hating on his decision, but I wouldn’t have made it.

[@LawrenceFerrari]

@@damoreahmitchell6863 my point is that he had a great game and instead of padding his stats he was unselfish and wanted the other players to get a chance to play. Plus with the team winning by 3tds in the 4th quarter why take a chance of getting hurt. Cause when someone is running all over you in a game some players are likely to try and get an extra hit on you. Causing injury. And we don't want to see that.

[@KenpachiPoker]

He gave a couple back ups like 3 extra plays. What a hero

[@LawrenceFerrari]

Of course guys want to make the money, but believe it or not some players are about winning and not worried about personal stats. One example of that is when Cliff Lee was asked why did you sign with the Phillies when the Yankees offered More money, and he sai d "how much money can I spend". That was cool?​@@damoreahmitchell6863
