Wayne Gallman was in the training room before Sunday’s Redskins-Giants game when Saquon Barkley wandered in to deliver his version of a pep talk.
Barkley, the Giants’ starting running back who is sidelined with an ankle injury for at least three more weeks, informed Gallman that he had just given him a vote of confidence on Twitter. Barkley guaranteed to his 332,000 followers that Gallman was “gonna go crazy today” in replacement of him.
