Giants' Saquon Barkley Says Ankle Injury Diagnosed as High Sprain

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley confirmed he suffered a high ankle sprain Sunday.

Barkley clarified his injury to Amazon prior to the Giants' Thursday Night Football contest, per ESPN's Jordan Raanan. The Giants offense struggled without Barkley in a 30-12 loss to the San Francisco 49ers.

Barkley suffered the injury during the Giants' Week 2 victory over the Arizona Cardinals. He had to be helped off the field in the fourth quarter.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Monday that Barkley's injury is expected to sideline him for three weeks.
