Giants’ offensive plan could hurt Saquon Barkley’s MVP chances

When you look at the New York Giants roster, one name stands out above the rest: running back Saquon Barkley. In 2018, Barkley shattered several rookie records and is poised to attack a few more as he enters his second season.

Barkley has bulked up and with an improving offensive line, he’s could be in for an MVP-caliber season.

Former Giants RB Brandon Jacobs on @Saquon: "That guy’s a monster. He’s getting bigger, too. He’s huge. He’s like 238 now. I told him ‘Make sure you stay stretched.’ He’s a tank."

That is why when national writers and columnists compile their lists and make their predictions about Giants’ prospects this season, it all begins with Barkley.
