PHOENIX – Giants GM Joe Schoen has reset his contract negotiations with Saquon Barkley, and head coach Brian Daboll is not sure if his running back will report to start the offseason program.
“There’s no outstanding offer right now,” Schoen said at the NFL owners meetings at the Arizona Biltmore. “Once we put the franchise tag on him, we stepped back. We knew throughout the negotiation there was gonna be a time where if we can’t come to an agreement, we were gonna go to the franchise tag. And that’s what we did.”
Schoen made clear the depressed running back market “doesn’t” impact how much he values Barkley.
