WATCH: Cooper DeJean says Saquon Barkley is the best player he’s ever seen

Cooper DeJean is one of the best players could exit college football and enter the NFL in years, and the former All-American cornerback has seen his share of great players.

During a recent interview with Whistle’s ‘Air It Out’ with AJ Greene and Justin Pugh, DeJean explained why Saquon Barkley is the “best football player” he’s ever seen.

Barkley entered Week 14 against the Panthers with 1,499 rushing yards in 12 games played, and he immediately moved in second place, passing the great Wilbert Montgomery, who logged 1,512 yards during the 1979 season when he was named a Pro Bowler.

Barkley is just 483 yards away from passing Eric Dickerson’s NFL single-season rushing record (2,105 yards) and isn’t shying away from the challenge.
