Report: Giants won’t rush Saquon Barkley despite making progress

There’s a reason the New York Giants signed two veteran running backs in Corey Clement and Ryquell Armstead earlier in the month. It’s because no one really knows how star running back Saquon Barkley will bounce back from a torn ACL.

ESPN’s Jordan Raanan mentioned in a recent article that Barkley is “making good progress.”

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. There have been no significant setbacks since the October surgery.
