New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley has officially been diagnosed with a torn ACL after an MRI on his right knee and will miss the rest of the season.

The Giants confirmed the diagnosis, noting Barkley will have surgery "in the near future."

Injuries have defined Barkley's 2020 season. The superstar running back suffered a knee injury in Week 2, with ESPN's Adam Schefter reporting at the time that the team feared it was a torn ACL

He's done, stick a fork in him.

Hate to see players getting injured but no training camp this is what happens

Giants season over?

Really tough break. By far, their best player. Rumor has it, they are talking to DeVante Freeman but they aren't replacing Saquon, imo.
I have to wonder if them or the other team that plays in the Meadowlands gets the first pick next season and what they do with it.

If its the Jets (which it's looking good at this point) they'll mess it up

With that said, the Giants might try for it as well

Feel sorry for the kid but this is exactly why you don't need to take a RB early in the NFL draft. First off, even with a successful one, you either might not resign him bc of money demands and/or production by even great RB's their prime doesn't last that long. Barkley might never be the same. I would take a WR early more than a RB.

Na.. Danny Dimes got this.

Probably make a playoff run this year.

Not with that turnover machine

Not with that turnover machine

He kicked out the future hall of famer... So he's at least a hall of fame talent..

Now he can earn it like Eli earned it over the years... Doing it with little to shitty talent..

Danny Dimes did make 10 consecutive starts before not being able to take the field... Which almost matches Eli's 210 consecutive starts, 2nd longest in NFL history and he was available to play in that game!!

I agree but I don't even like taking most of the WRs early. I see a lot of good value in the 2nd and 3rd rounds and even deeper in the draft. Better to build the trenches and get talent on defense early on, imo.

Eli was overrated, a winner but he's overrated. Danny Dimes is overrated. Hey look, they have that in common too!

When Danny Dimes gets to be top 10 in career TD passing yards and TD's in the NFL to ever walk the earth...

We'll call him overrated then..

Let's hope he comes back and proves us all wrong

 

[jarntt]

Sucks. Hate to see these injuries

Giants season over?

Eh, over-ER, yes

 

[Kevin12773]

Maybe Washington will finish 3rd this season

Personally I wouldn’t go early on a wr and take the risk with a rb. I think you should take a rb cuz you use them more and rely on them more play in and play out as oppose to a wr. Yes a wr u can use for every pass play and can tear apart a defense. But an explosive RB can tear a defense a part both on running plays and you can put them out as a wr and they can hurt you there too.
But at the end of the day yes I do feel bad for Barkley. Two years in a row going out with injuries. Who knows if he will ever be the same after this injury. And how many years in his prime is he missing due to injury.

You won't have to worry about that
