Coach Mike Tomlin had some high praise for him, calling Barkley “the most significant acquisition in the NFL in 2024.” That’s a big statement! Tomlin pointed out how dominant Barkley has been, with highlight-reel plays and impressive touchdowns.
He emphasized that if the Steelers can’t find a way to contain Barkley, they’re in for a tough game. But he also mentioned that while Barkley is a key focus, they can’t let him take all their attention.
Tomlin recalled the last time Barkley faced the Steelers back in 2020, where they managed to hold him to just 6 yards. But with the way Barkley’s been playing, he’s expected to do much better this time around.
Tomlin described Barkley as a complete player with top-notch speed and the ability to make big plays. He’s definitely someone the Steelers will need to keep an eye on this Sunday.
