During an episode of the podcast “The Money Matters” recorded on July 11, the 26-year-old athlete said that if the situation had not been resolved, he was going to come to a job action.
“Anyone who knows me knows that’s not something I want to do. But it’s something that crossed my mind, I never thought I would do this one day. But now I’m at a point where I’m like, damn it, maybe I’m going to have to step up to this level. Am I ready and do I have the will to reach this level? I don’t know,” the Penn State University alum told The Money Matters podcast on Monday.
Barkley finished last season in NFL rushing yards with 1,312. He also had ten touchdowns in 16 games. His excellent performances allowed him to participate in the last Pro Bowl.
