Giants Beat: Top-form RB Saquon Barkley missing in action

Saquon Barkley returned, but top-form Saquon Barkley still is missing in action.

In other words, the Giants played with their star running back Monday night for the first time in five games, but Barkley didn’t perform in a 30-10 loss to the Buccaneers like he has at his best in the past — or even like he did right before he injured his ankle.

Barkley said it was good to be back but as the story said he didn't get enough touches, six rushes for 25 yards and six catches for 31 yards. Barkley added, "I’m going to do whatever it takes to get my brain and my feet and my legs caught up together." The good news for Barkley owners is Booker carried just three times and had only one catch on MNF. There was talk Barkley wouldn't ever get the type of workload he got in the past but in his first game back he certainly got a big majority of the RB touches at least.
