Saquon Barkley's contract situation with the Giants is reaching a critical stage
Saquon Barkley's contract negotiations with the Giants are nearing a deadline. Barkley, who understands the devaluation of running backs in the NFL, wants to be valued beyond his position. The Giants are prepared to pay him as one of the top running backs in the league, but Barkley is seeking a richer guaranteed portion of the deal. If an agreement is not reached, Barkley may play on the franchise tag and revisit his contract situation after the season.
