Anthony Barr is an American football outside linebacker for the Dallas Cowboys of the National Football League (NFL).
Barr was up in Los Angeles, where he attended Loyola High School in the Pico-Union neighborhood. Although he was born in South Bend, Indiana, he spent his childhood there.
In 2014, Barr’s first season playing professional football in the NFL, he was selected for the Pro Football Focus All-NFC North Team and was honored as the NFC Defensive Player of the Week for Week 8 by the National Football Conference.
His first year was cut short by a knee injury, which was unfortunate. Since then, Barr has participated in the Pro Bowl for the past four years in a row (2015–2018).
In the spring of 2019, he inked a contract extension with the Vikings that would extend his current deal by another five years.
Is Anthony Barr Still In NFL: Why Is Anthony Barr On PUP List?
Anthony Barr, a former linebacker for the Minnesota Vikings and the most recent player to sign with the Dallas Cowboys, has been traded.
His position with the Cowboys was changed to “physically unable to perform” (PUP) on the roster.
After spending a considerable amount of time as a free agent throughout the summer, this move buys him some breathing room to pick up the pace of his professional life. He was spotted attending practice while wearing a jersey and shorts.
