Will Saquon Barkley actually hit free agency this offseason?
The New York Giants reportedly won’t franchise tag their star running back, allowing him to hit the open market.
Barkley was franchise-tagged last offseason. He then threatened to sit out before agreeing to a one-year deal to remain with the team.
Barkley has proven to be one of the league’s top running backs and arguably the league’s best dual-threat running back since the Giants selected him with the No. 2 overall pick in 2018. He had a stellar season in 2022, rushing for 1,312 yards on 4.4 yards per carry and 10 touchdowns to go with 57 receptions for 338 yards.
Barkley’s 2023 season wasn’t as prolific, as the Giants offense struggled, and he dealt with injuries, but he put up a solid season. He rushed for 962 yards and six touchdowns on 3.9 yards per carry, adding 41 receptions for 280 yards and four touchdowns.
So, which team will add the two-time Pro Bowl running back?
Let’s take a closer look at Barkley’s next team odds at DraftKings Sportsbook.
