The No. 2 overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft and Rookie of the Year completes his goal of finishing his college degree.
This past weekend, Barkley added college graduate to his list of accomplishments.
Barkley played at Penn State from 2015-2017, he won Big Ten Offensive Player of the Year twice and consensus All-American honors in 2017.
Over the course of his four-year NFL career, Barkley continued taking classes.
“If it takes me four years, five years, six years, no matter what, I’m going to get my college degree,” Barkley said four years ago, before entering the 2018 NFL Draft after his junior season. “That will be another special moment for my mother and me, when I’m able to go up there and get my college degree.”
Congratulations and salute to the college graduate.
