At one point of New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley’s career, he was on the NFL’s A-list of superstars. That is when he was a breakout rookie back in 2018 when he led the league in yards from scrimmage and the sky was the limit.
But a lot has happened since then. Barkley has been plagued by injuries, the most serious being an ACL tear early in the 2020 season, which sidelined him for the final 14 games that year.
Barkley has also been nagged by ankle sprains and other ailments that have cost him games and limited him in many others. as he enters the fifth and final year of his rookie contract with the Giants, Barkley is no longer considered a top-tier player.
