Saquon Barkley Praises Eagles Rookie Jihaad Campbell: Roll Call

Star Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley praised former Alabama linebacker and new teammate Jihaad Campbell on Monday. Barkley rushed for 2,005 yards last regular season and finished third in the MVP race.

"Freaky athletic. Think he's gonna be a problem, a real big problem for a lot of guys in this league, having to go against him," Barkley said. "He's kind of built like [Dallas Cowboys star] Micah [Parsons] a little bit... As he grows and learns the game a little bit more, we'll be able to put him in different spots."

Barkley joked that perhaps Campbell was too aggressive for training camp. Campbell, who was picked No. 31 overall in the first round in April, had offseason shoulder surgery after the NFL Combine but appears to be in good shape as he works toward being ready for the regular season.
