Eagles' Saquon Barkley Teases Possible 360 Hurdle After Viral Video During 2024 Season

Having already accomplished a 180-degree hurdle in a game, Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley is thinking about the possibility of one-upping himself in the future.

In a video shared by SportsCenter on Instagram, Barkley said it "would be cool if I could do a full 360" when talking about how to adapt his mid-air spin move going forward.

Amid a season full of highlight-reel plays from Barkley, the 2024 Offensive Player of the Year's signature moment came in the second quarter of Philadelphia's 28-23 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 9.

Jaguars rookie Jarrian Jones was on the receiving end of the reverse hurdle from Barkley. Even he struggled to come up with ways to explain what he saw.

"He is touched by God. That was a hell of a play. I don't know how he thought about that, but that was a hell of a play," Jones told reporters. "I mean, I mean, but I still watch the play and be like I don't know how the hell he thought about that."

One of the old adages in all sports is that if a player did something once, they can do it again.

A 360 hurdle doesn't exactly fall into that category because Barkley has never done it, but no one had ever done a 180 hurdle in a game before that moment on Nov. 3.

Barkley just put together one of the best running back seasons in NFL history in his first year with the Eagles. He led the league in rushing yards (2,005) and yards from scrimmage (2,283) in the regular season.

The three-time Pro Bowler followed that up with more than 100 rushing yards in each of Philadelphia's first three playoff games. He totaled 97 yards from scrimmage in the Eagles' 40-22 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl 59.
