Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley pulled off one of the most impressive athletic feats you will see on a football field during the Eagles’ 28-23 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday.Barkley caught a pass from quarterback Jalen Hurts, juked around one Jaguars defender and spun away from another. As Barkley was finishing his spin move and his back was turned toward a third Jaguars defender, he improbably hurdled over the defender while facing backward. The play was incredible, but Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has a warning for those who might want to try and emulate the reverse hurdle.

It is the fastest way to break your neck. Football is not meant to be played in the air, I promise you that.”Travis’ brother, former Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce, echoed the sentiment.JASON KELCE REVEALS WHAT HE REGRETS THE MOST ABOUT PENN STATE FAN INCIDENT Eagles running back Saquon Barkley carries the ball for a first down during the first half against the Jacksonville Jaguars, Nov. 3, 2024, in Philadelphia.

That is a safety hazard. You do not want to go into a game leaving the ground. I’ve landed on my head too many times, and we advise kids not to try and make this play at home,” Travis said.
