New York Giants: News and notes for NFL preseason Week 1

New York Giants fans could have turned their televisions off after the first play from scrimmage. Dynamic rookie running back, Saquon Barkley, ripped off an exciting 39-yard scamper to jump start his professional career. Largely, that was the extent of the team’s offense against the Browns. According to ESPN, Barkley led Big Blue with 43-yards on the ground. That means he had only four yards in his other three carries.

Further down the running back depth chart, both Robert Martin (Rutgers) and Jalen Simmons (South Carolina State) created some excitement for Big Blue.
