One thing that has never lacked at Penn State is sending players to the NFL. Under [autotag]James Franklin[/autotag] however, the quality of player and people being sent to the world’s biggest league seems to have taken a step up somehow.
Last week it was [autotag]Miles Sanders[/autotag] and [autotag]Micah Parsons[/autotag] headlining the big performances and while Parsons had a repeat performance, another former Penn State running back made a giant impact.
[autotag]Saquon Barkley[/autotag] helped lead the Giants over the Packers as they now sit at an impressive 4-1 on the season. The health of Barkley is a big part of why that team and its new coaching staff are having the season they are having.
Likewise, for Parsons and the Cowboys, they have had the injury bug but his performances have carried that team. We aren’t the only ones noticing of course, social media was buzzing again over all their performances.
