Giants' Saquon Barkley: Le'Veon Bell Sitting out 2018 Season 'Not Good' for NFL

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley believes the NFL is a better place when New York Jets running back Le'Veon Bell is on the field.

"We definitely both respect each other's games," Barkley said, per Ryan Dunleavy of NJ.com. "Obviously, he sat out last year and that's just not good for the league in general because he is such a tremendous player and you look forward to seeing a guy like that on Sundays."

Bell sat out the 2018 campaign due to a contract dispute with the Pittsburgh Steelers but signed with the Jets this offseason.
