VIDEO: Saquon Barkley Attempts Patrick Mahomes No-Look Pass and Hits a Coach in the Head
By Sam Dunn
Training camp is a time to focus. A time to get locked in ahead of the new NFL season. But, that doesn't mean there isn't a bit of time here and there to ham it up in front of the cameras, right? Just ask Giants running back Saquon Barkley, who decided to take a crack at a Patrick Mahomes impression with a cheeky no-look throw. It did not go well...

Saquon no-look fail! This as-yet-unidentified G-Men assistant coach hopefully got some payback, because the phenom totally plunked him.
Yes, it goes without saying-- there's only one Pat Mahomes. And no matter how terrific Barkley was in his maiden campaign in the league, the 2018 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year should stick to toting the rock. Letting him fling it is clearly far, far too dangerous.
