Saquon Barkley is on track to be ready for the start of the season, according to sources.

Barkley tore the ACL in his right knee during the New York Giants' Week 2 loss to the Chicago Bears. He had surgery in late October, giving him almost 11 months to rehab and be available for the start of the 2021 season.

The Giants also picked up the fifth-year option on Barkley's rookie contract Wednesday. With the move, Barkley's 2022 salary, worth about $7.2 million, becomes fully guaranteed.
