New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley may not receive a full workload if he plays in the team's Week 1 game against the Denver Broncos, which would limit his fantasy football upside.
Barkley, who suffered a torn ACL in Week 2 of the 2020 season, completed his first full-contact practice Thursday since the knee injury. His availability for the Sept. 12 season opener hasn't been confirmed.
On Friday, Dan Duggan of The Athletic predicted how the situation may play out:
"It's still not known if Barkley will be ready for Week 1. My sense is that Barkley will be in the lineup for the opener but won't have a full workload.
