Daniel Jones rattled off all the things you’d expect to hear about Saquon Barkley. Diverse skill set. Runs hard. Catches the ball well. Everything that made the running back one of the most electric and popular players in the NFL since he was picked second overall by the Giants.
"When he’s ready to go it’ll be good for us to have him back," Jones said.
It will be good for Jones, too, because so far in his career he hasn’t had much experience with the player he described. Jones’s entrance onto the Giants’ stage occurred in the same game in which Barkley suffered a high ankle sprain that kept him out of the next three games and certainly limited him physically once he did come back for the final 10.
