Saquon Barkley Lands On The PUP List
3 years agoNew York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (knee) will begin training camp on the Physically Unable to Perform list. He wasn't expected to be a full-go at training camp and is expected to be eased back into the mix. The 24-year-old tore his ACL and injured his meniscus in Week 2 of last season. Barkley recently stated that "it's still unclear when he will be able to return to practice but feels pretty good." The Giants will be cautious with their star running back and he will most likely have a reduced workload to begin the year. Fantasy managers are still drafting Barkley in the first round of 2021 drafts after rushing for 2,310 yards and hauling in 143 receptions for 1,159 yards in his first two seasons in the NFL. Although there are injury concerns, when healthy, Barkley has the talent to be a high-end RB1.
