Saquon Barkley on Upcoming Season: ‘I Feel Like I’m Better’

Talk of Giants running back Saquon Barkley looking like he could return to his old self this offseason has the team optimistic for 2022, and apparently he feels the same way. During an appearance on the Second Wind podcast, the tailback talked about his outlook of the upcoming season and was more than optimistic. 

“Do I feel like I’m back? I feel like I’m better, to be completely honest,” he said. “I’m older now, I’m 25. I’ve been through some stuff, you know, ups and downs. Now, I’m in a situation where, you know me, I always have the mindset of always being counted out, but now it’s actually here. It’s actually real. People are really counting me out, people are trying to write me off and I don’t really do it for the pleasure of others or making other people satisfied. I do it because I just wanna be great.”
