The New York Giants announced Friday that running back Saquon Barkley has been removed from the reserve/COVID-19 list.
NFL Network's Mike Garafolo added that Barkley's positive COVID-19 test turned out to be a false positive after additional testing was conducted.
While Barkley's removal from the COVID-19 list means he is eligible to play Sunday against the Las Vegas Raiders, he has missed the past three games with an ankle injury, and it is unclear if he will be healthy enough to return in Week 9.
