New York Giants RB Saquon Barkley back with team after false positive COVID-19 tests, but out vs. Las Vegas Raiders

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley and safety Xavier McKinney returned to the team after spending several days away because of false positive COVID-19 tests. They were activated from the reserve/COVID list on Friday morning.

McKinney was at practice and is expected to play Sunday vs. the Las Vegas Raiders. Barkley was in the building but didn't practice because of an ankle injury that sidelined him the past three games. He will miss another game in part because the false positives limited his opportunities to get on the field this week.
