New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley is expected to play Monday night against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers barring a setback with his ankle, sources told ESPN.
Barkley was officially listed as questionable for the contest after practicing all week. He has missed the Giants' past three games.
Barkley was injured when he stepped on the foot of Dallas Cowboys cornerback Jourdan Lewis on Oct. 10. His ankle ballooned immediately.
The thought was that it was a low ankle sprain, and that he would have to miss some time.
