Saquon Barkley Fantasy Football Outlook (2025)

It's worrisome that Barkley had 482 touches last season, playoffs included. Maybe he's at greater risk of injury this year after handling such a massive workload, but it's hard to quantify the risk. What we can judge with a greater degree of certainty is that Barkley is a phenomenal running back and has a near-perfect ecosystem, playing with a great offensive line in a run-heavy offense. Barkley might not be able to top a 2024 regular season in which he had 2,283 yards from scrimmage and 15 touchdowns, but if he stays healthy, he's a good bet to finish as a top-five fantasy RB.
