There is a slim chance Giants running back Saquon Barkley could achieve the 2018 rushing title against the Cowboys this Sunday. It’s slim, yes. But there’s a chance.
The rookie out of Penn State has 1,198 rushing yards through 16 games this season, third in the NFL. The only two above him are Rams running back Todd Gurley with 1,251 and Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliot with 1,434.
He only needs 53 yards on the ground to pass Gurley and has a good chance to do so, due to the fact Gurley will be sitting the Rams’ week 17 game in order to rest for the playoffs.
