Saquon Barkley was out warming up on the field in Washington ahead of Thursday night’s Week 2 matchup with the Washington football team, and the running back is active for the Giants’ crucial NFC East matchup.
Barkley logged 10 carries for just 26 yards in Week 1, his first game back since tearing his ACL in Week 2 of last season. With the short turnaround, Barkley’s status was up in the air and he was listed as questionable on Wednesday, but it looks like New York will have its RB1 to counter Washington’s formidable defensive front.
Barkley will likely be on a limited workload, playing in his second game in five days after missing nearly a year of game action.
