The New York Giants have been without superstar running back Saquon Barkley for the start of their offseason programming. Barkley has yet to sign the franchise tag that the team placed on him back in February, making him ineligible to participate in offseason programming.
Contract negotiations between Barkley and the Giants have stalled recently with no conclusion in sight. New York was, however, able to strike a deal this offseason with QB Daniel Jones. Big Blue signed Jones to a four-year, $140 million contract, cementing him as the team’s franchise quarterback. Now Jones is hoping to see the team lock in Barkley with a new deal.
