The reality for New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley is clear. He is fighting against a dwindling market that no longer values his position as it used to.
Contract Stalemate Between Barkley and the Giants
Barkley seeks around $22 million in guaranteed money, while the Giants have reportedly offered around $19.5 million, creating a considerable gap that General Manager Joe Schoen remains reluctant to bridge, at least for now.
With the July 17 deadline looming for both parties to reach an agreement, the Giants appear unlikely to exceed their proposed guaranteed salary.
