NY Giants stay or go: Who is part of rebuild? Who should be dumped?
RB – Saquon Barkley
The Giants will likely pick up Barkley’s fifth-year option before opening long-term contract talks if he can prove that he is the same player post-ACL surgery and can stay healthy in his fourth season.
Through his first two-plus seasons, Barkley has rushed for 2,344 yards with 17 touchdowns and added 149 receptions for 1,219 yards and six more scores.
When healthy, Barkley is among the five most dangerous running backs in the league, and a threat to score whenever he touches the ball, even as a receiver out of the backfield.
