Injury report shows optimism for return of Saquon Barkley this week
Published:
Saquon Barkley was a phenomenal back at Penn State. He did it all for the Nittany Lions.
Since moving on to the New York Giants and the NFL a year ago, all he has done is impress. So, when Barkley suffered a high ankle sprain three weeks ago, fans feared the worst.

The timetable for his return four-to-eight weeks. Well, we’re here three weeks later and it appears as though Barkley is ready to roll:

Should we have expected anything different from the freak (in a good way, of course) that Barkley is? Rumblings were heard a week ago that he was cutting around and doing drills on the sidelines.
Now, we’ll likely get to see him in uniform playing once again on Sunday.
