New York Giants' Saquon Barkley 'making progress' but won't be rushed back

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Saquon Barkley's rehabilitation from a serious knee injury has taken the running back from Arizona to Los Angeles this offseason. Most recently, he has been in New Jersey, working out at the New York Giants facility.

It has been almost seven months of grueling work to get Barkley's knee ready for the 2021 NFL season. Session after session. Workout after workout. Physical therapy, massage, isometrics. If it's going to help, Barkley has probably tried it.

After his injury in a Week 2 loss to Chicago last season, Barkley is "making good progress" following ACL surgery and a meniscus repair to his right knee, according to a source with direct knowledge of his rehab.
