Fantasy Footballers on Saquon Barkley

Skeptical on Barkley resurgence despite Lane Johnson health; 48th stuffed rate, 42nd YAC.

JJ Zachariason expresses skepticism about Saquon's resurgent year despite Lane Johnson's return to health. Barkley ranked 48th in stuffed at the line of scrimmage and 42nd in yards after contact per attempt last year; he was hit frequently and the Eagles' poor passing game kept defenses stacked in the box. At 29 years old, Zachariason notes that while Lane Johnson's health could open lanes, he was skeptical when watching Tank Bigsby behind the same offensive line last year—Bigsby looked great. Additionally, Barkley had only 13 carries inside the five with one rushing touchdown, a significant decline in goal-line work.
