The New York Giants are keeping Saquon Barkley out of their Week 2 preseason game against the Chicago Bears Friday night, according to NFL Network's Kimberly Jones.

"Not surprised," Jones noted. "And smart move by [the] Giants, considering how valuable he is to this team."

The 22-year-old running back didn't play in New York's preseason opener, either, a 31-22 win over the New York Jets.
