Saquon Barkley to the rescue!
In light of Cowboys defense end Demarcus Lawrence snubbing an 11-year-old autograph-seeking Giants fan last weekend in Dallas, Barkley will fly out the youngster and his family to New York for the Nov. 10 game against the Jets, according to TMZ Sports.
A clip of Texas native Kamil Bautista, clad in a blue Barkley jersey, being blown off by Lawrence quickly went viral amid the Giants’ disastrous season-opening loss.
“Get the right jersey, son,” Lawrence said to Bautista.
Lawrence, who is notorious for ripping Giants quarterback Eli Manning, received a lot of backlash on social media for his salty response.
“It’s crazy how you fans want to attack me for not signing for a kid,” Lawrence tweeted. “It’s more than one kid that comes to the game with Cowboys jersey and never get to meet any player. So if I’m honest with my own kids I will never treat your kid better than mine so suck it up. #SorryNotSorry.”
Barkley reportedly is planning a meet-and-greet for the the Bautista family, where little Kamil will likely get the signature of his favorite player.
