FantasyPros Articles on Saquon Barkley
From the article
After an insane 2024 season, Saquon Barkley was poised to come back down to earth some in 2025. Well, it happened. Barkley finished with 317 touches and 1,413 total yards as the RB14 in fantasy points per game.
STACKED’s take
Barkley's efficiency metrics collapsed in 2025; projections expect continued decline to RB10.
Saquon Barkley's 2025 regression from his insane 2024 season is expected to continue into 2026. After leading all RBs with 3.55 yards before contact per attempt in 2024, Barkley fell to 2.11 (23rd among 49 qualifying backs) in 2025. His explosive run rate dropped from 7.2% (fourth-best) to 4.6% (20th), and yards after contact per attempt dipped from 2.26 (35th) to 1.96 (39th). The source projects him at RB10 (245.0 FPTS) versus his ECR of RB7, a -3 differential. Volume should finish around 300 touches with double-digit touchdown upside, locking him into top-15 status with possible top 5-7 upside only if the Eagles' offensive line stays healthy and the passing attack bounces back (the team ranked 28th in red-zone scoring opportunities per game in 2025).
