Saquon Barkley smiles as readily as Odell Beckham Jr. dances, and the news that the Giants are moving to make sure they will be Superman and Batman together, probably for the next five years at least, is making the stars shine brightly over East Rutherford, N.J.
“That’s awesome,” Barkley told The Post. “That’s awesome. I know Odell wants to be a Giant for a long time, I know how passionate he is about this organization, about this team and about the game of football, so definitely congratulations to him.”
Beckham hasn’t caught that $90 million-100 million contract just yet, but it’s in the air, and the reaction of his teammates to him not staging a holdout tells you how much potential there is for Beckham to emerge as one of Pat Shurmur’s new Giants leaders.
