New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley suffered a torn ACL in his right knee, the team announced Monday.
He will undergo surgery in the “near future,” the team said, after he underwent an MRI at the Hospital for Special Surgery on Monday to confirm the tear. Barkley will miss the rest of the season while rehabbing. It takes on average six to nine months to get back to full activity after an ACL tear.
Barkley was tackled by Chicago Bears safety Eddie Jackson early in the second half on Sunday when his right knee buckled.
