Saquon Barkley Still Hopes To Finish His Career With Giants

Aug 28, 2023 8:44 AM

Despite difficult contract talks with the New York Giants this offseason, Saquon Barkley says he still wants to finish his career with the franchise.

"Oh, yeah. I don't think that really changed," Barkley said. "They know how I feel. I'm not really too focused on that right now."

The running back agreed to a one-year deal worth up to $11 million this season after the two sides failed to reach a long-term pact.

Barkley admits he was "bothered" by "some of the stuff" that transpired during talks. Before the July 17 deadline to reach agreement on a long-term deal, Barkley accused the Giants of "misleading" and "untruthful" leaks about negotiations that he felt portrayed him as "greedy."

Aug 17, 2023 8:25 AM

Rob Gronkowski has no plans to come out of retirement, but if he did, the tight end says there's only one coach that could get him out on the field.

"[New York Giants head coach] Brian Daboll wants me on his roster, I know it," Gronkowski told Kay Adams.

The 34-year-old said even though he likes to think he could still compete on a roster, the reality is a bit different.

"He can't get me out of retirement, but he would have the best chance to get me out of retirement," Gronkowski said of Daboll.
