Saquon Barkley Wants To Stay With Giants

11 months ago

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley indicated on Wednesday that he'd like to remain with the team for the rest of his career. However, Barkley also said, "I just want something that's fair and that makes sense. That's really it. if it's not here, hopefully it's some other place," when discussing his next contract. The Giants and Barkley weren't really seeing eye to eye in 2023 before he was given the franchise tag and then ultimately a one-year deal. New York could use the franchise tag on the 26-year-old again in 2024, but he's clearly looking for a multi-year deal, even if it means leaving the Big Apple. Barkley didn't have much of a chance to be an RB1 for fantasy managers this year behind a terrible offensive line, but he made the most of his opportunities and is sitting on 916 rushing yards and four touchdowns on 229 attempts through 13 games, adding 39 catches for 229 yards and four more scores.
