There’s a first for everything, no matter what type of life you live. For New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley, a new first arrived this season. For the first time in his NFL career, the Penn State product missed regular-season games.
The 2018 AP Offensive Rookie of the Year has been nursing a high ankle sprain suffered in a Week 3 win over Tampa Bay.
Barkley has missed matchups against the Redskins, Vikings, and Patriots since the setback, as New York has played Wayne Gallman, Jon Hilliman, and Elijhaa Penny in his place.
