New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley has been feeling himself in practice of late, frequently challenging the likes of tight end Evan Engram and wide receiver Sterling Shepard to a throwing contest.
Barkley has owned the competition, repeatedly launching balls perfectly into the net, so he decided to spice it up a bit earlier this week and channel his inner Patrick Mahomes.
It did not go well.
After connecting on a few long passes, Barkley wanted to up the ante and prove that the no-look pass is easy peasy. It wasn’t. And in the end, Barkley ended up launching a rocket that connected with the head of one of his assistant coaches.
Check out video of the friendly fire below:
As remarkably talented as Barkley is, it looks like he’s got a little more work to do before he’s uncorking no-look passes on the field for the Giants.
