"That's disrespectful": NFL fans react as Saquon Barkley gets drug tested after reverse hurdle

Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley showed off his incredible athleticism against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday.

During the second quarter, Barkley caught a pass. Then, as a Jaguars defender lunged towards him, he spun around and with his back towards CB Jarrian Jones, leaped up. He performed a reverse hurdle over Jones, before being taken down by a few Jaguars defenders some moments later.

A video went viral on social media showing his Eagles teammates reacting to the reverse hurdle on the sidelines. Even fans were stunned.

Saquon Barkley revealed after the game that he had been drug tested by the NFL, sending fans into a frenzy.

One fan said it was disrespectful to Barkley to be asked to go through a drug test.

"That’s disrespectful maan"

Another fan did not blame the NFL but said the move looked straight out of a movie.

"of course he did, man looked like he's out their in a Marvel movie trying to get to Thanos."

Other fans also chimed in with their reactions, with many expressing their disbelief at the fact that Saquon Barkley was able to pull it off.

"Tbh that was some Spider Man movie type shiii💀," one fan said.

"😂 because drugs make you jump backwards. Everyone knows that," another fan sarcastically said.

"always an honor to get drug tested after a great performance," another fan remarked.

"That is the best compliment he could have received," one more fan echoed.

Nick Sirianni was wowed by Saquon Barkley's reverse hurdle

Eagles HC Nick Sirianni was all praise for Barkley.

"It was the best play I've ever seen," Sirianni told reporters after the game.

He added that he was "speechless" and kids all over the country would be trying to emulate the jump whenever they played backyard football.

Saquon Barkley, on the other hand, simply credited God with giving him the ability to pull off the hurdle.
