Saquon Barkley's stunning one-handed catch vs Cowboys
The New York Giants may want to release a highlights reel for their fans as a late Christmas present, mainly featuring their running back.
So, you’re sitting there watching the game and, you know, it’s not a particularly enthralling one, then something happens that makes you sit forward to inspect the replay a little closer. That just happened to me during the Cowboys trip to New York
Barkley’s memorable two-yard catch
Giants running back Saquon Barkley has form when it comes to catching the eye and did it here by catching a short ball. With the home team third-and-one, Barkley half-blocks a hungry defender and bounces off to the right.
As the pressure descends on Glennon he releases in that direction but it’s falling before the intended target. No worries, check out the video below and see what happens…followed by first down.
WOW @saquon 👀

Despite this lovely play, the visiting Cowboys were on top for much of the contest. Here’s how it went down.
