Saquon Barkley, the American running back for the New York Giants, has recently called out Giants’ fans over the lack of Pro-Bowl votes for nose tackle Dexter Lawrence II. Saquon has asked the fan base to help their teammate make it to the Pro-Bowl, and spoke to reporters following the Giants’ loss to the Cardinals on Sunday:
“It’s very important for us to get the fans involved to get Dexter Lawrence II to the Pro Bowl. Dexter deserves to get to the Pro Bowl. He’s worked extremely hard and he’s been a big part of our defense for two years.”
For those unfamiliar with the Pro Bowl, it is a yearly exhibition game held between the best players in the National Football League (NFL). Players are selected to the Pro Bowl team based on their stats as well as fan voting.
Lawrence has been an integral part of the Giants’ defense since his rookie year in 2019, racking up 56 tackles and seven sacks in his first two NFL seasons. Despite his impressive highlights, Lawrence remains overlooked and has not yet made the Pro-Bowl cut.
To help Lawrence make it to the Pro Bowl, Barkley is urging Giants’ fans to cast their votes. He believes that if Lawrence receives the necessary fan support, he will have a chance to make it to the Pro Bowl roster.
The Giants’ offense looks to be in good shape, thanks in large part to Barkley and his ability to turn short passes into long gains. With his strong arm and open field running, Barkley provides the Giants’ offense with a much-needed spark.
In addition to creating plays for the offense, Barkley is always looking for ways to motivate and support his team, which is why he is advocating for Lawrence’s Pro Bowl selection. He knows that Lawrence belongs in the Pro Bowl and that his hard work and dedication should be rewarded.
Saquon Barkley has become a leader for the Giants both on and off the field, and his call for the fans to help Lawrence make it to the Pro Bowl is another example of his commitment to his teammates. With any luck, Giants’ fans will heed his call and help get Lawrence to the Pro Bowl.
The Pro Bowl is a great opportunity for Lawrence to showcase his talent and for Barkley to show his support for his teammate. We hope that the fans will get behind Lawrence and help him achieve his dream of playing in the Pro Bowl.
