The Giants and Saquon Barkley reportedly failed to agree on a contract extension ahead of Monday’s deadline to extend players under the franchise tag, which passed at 4:00 p.m. ET.
After negotiations failed to bring a new long-term deal to fruition, the star running back took to social media to share his disappointment in a five-word message.
“It is what it is,” Barkley wrote via Twitter on Monday afternoon, seemingly expressing his disappointment over the lack of a new deal.
