Saquon Barkley A Mid-Range RB1 Against Dallas In Week 5
3 years agoNew York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (knee) was a full participant in Thursday's practice and is all systems go for Week 5 against the Dallas Cowboys. The 24-year-old has found the end zone in back-to-back weeks and will look to extend his scoring streak to three games on Sunday. He continued to see a heavy workload and logged a season-high 53 snaps in Week 4's win over the Saints. The Cowboys have been tough against the run and allow 81 rushing yards per game, ranked sixth in the NFL. However, Dallas has been getting destroyed through the air and is allowing 315.2 passing yards per game, precisely 58.5 receiving yards, to the opposing team's running backs. Barkley should rack up plenty of total yards and is a top-10 RB in Week 5.
