Barkley was originally drafted in the fourth round (98th overall) by the Philadelphia Eagles in the 2013 NFL Draft. He has appeared in 19 games, starting six with Chicago and one with Buffalo since entering the league. Over the last 10 seasons, Barkley has spent time in Philadelphia, Arizona, Chicago, San Francisco, Cincinnati, Buffalo, Tennessee, Carolina, Atlanta and the New York Giants.
