Saquon Barkley Rumors: RB Rejected Giants Contract Offer With $12.5M-Plus AAV

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley turned down a contract offer worth more than $12.5 million annually, per Connor Hughes of SNY.

"There was a contract offer on the table with a Giants letterhead for Saquon Barkley to sign during the bye week that would have paid him $12.5 million annually," Hughes wrote. "There was another, for a smidge more, pushed across after the season ended.

"Barkley turned down both. And now, the table is bare."

The Giants placed the non-exclusive franchise tag (worth $10.1 million) on Barkley on March 15.
