Saquon Barkley On Contract: Whatever Happens, Happens

Apr 24, 2023 9:24 AM

Saquon Barkley was not with the New York Giants for the start of their offseason program this week and Joe Schoen said there's been no progress toward a long-term deal with the running back.

The Giants used the franchise tag on Barkley earlier this offseason.

"Where do I stand with the Giants right now? It's like what someone said the other day ...  it's still April," Barkley said. "I haven't had conversations with Joe too much. So the best way I can handle it is to keep working. Whatever happens, happens. There are things I can’t really control right now. All I can control is how I will wake up every morning and stay with my goals and my passion. Even though I may not be with the team right now and not in the building, I don’t think anyone with the Giants is concerned about my work-ethic and my teammates aren't worried about how I’m preparing."

July 17 is the deadline for the Giants and Barkley to work out a longer deal.

Saquon Barkley Won't Sign Tender Before Offseason Program Starts

Apr 12, 2023 12:26 PM

Saquon Barkley does not plan to sign his franchise tender before the New York Giants' offseason program begins Monday.

The Giants designated Barkley as their franchise player last month but have continued contract negotiations with him.

The negotiations remained at a stalemate as of Wednesday morning and Barkley would not be eligible to participate in the offseason program unless he is under contract.

Without a long-term deal, Barkley would make $10.091 million in 2023 under the one-year franchise tender.
