Saquon Barkley sent shockwaves across the NFL landscape when he pulled out a move never seen in a professional football field before.
The Eagles running back completed perhaps the greatest 14-yard catch and run ever Sunday when he juked a Jaguars defender and then while backwards, cleared a Jacksonville defensive back.
Saquon Barkley with a backwards hurdle…other-worldly.

Saquon Barkley is insane. That backwards hurdle has got to be one of the most athletic plays I’ve ever seen.

It felt superhuman to fans, it also to the league apparently, who drug tested Barkely immediately after the game’s conclusion.
