Giants coach Brian Daboll shared hope that star running back Saquon Barkley could suit up for the team’s Thursday night showdown with the 49ers, despite suffering a sprained ankle in Week 2 against Arizona.
When asked at his Tuesday press conference whether Barkley would miss the game against San Francisco, Daboll provided a positive update, going as far as to call his star back a “quick healer” who is feeling a lot better two days after suffering the injury.
“I’m not saying he’s out yet. He’s a quick healer. I’m not saying he’s in or he’s out,” said Daboll. “We are going to take it all the way up to Thursday with him. He feels a lot better today. I just talked to him.”
