Saquon Barkley Records 88 Total Yards In Week 2 Victory
2 years agoNew York Giants running back Saquon Barkley turned 21 carries into 72 rushing yards while also posting 16 receiving yards on three receptions in the team's Week 2 win over the Carolina Panthers. It was a disappointing performance from the electric running back, especially with the workload he received. At the same time, it was good to see the Giants deploy a heavy dose of their superstar running back for the second straight week. Given the lack of a passing game, Barkley should expect to see defenses center their attention on slowing him down. Even after a quiet showing in Week 2, there shouldn't be any concern with the 25-year-old's status as an RB1 moving forward.
