Use Caution When Drafting Saquon Barkley in Fantasy Football Leagues

The Giants rusher is coming off major knee surgery and history tells us to err on the side of caution when selecting New York’s rusher.

Saquon Barkley tore his ACL in Week 2 of the 2020 NFL season but recently posted a video of himself exercising and doing drills on his Instagram. The Giants have said they expect Barkley to be healthy for the start of the season but their plan is to reduce his workload to start the year. That’s a cause for concern for fantasy football players thinking of using a Top 5 pick on Barkley according to Sports Illustrated’s Michael Fabiano.
