Fantasy Impact: 

Barkley didn't seem like he had much of a shot to play on a short week in Week 3, but it's at least a bit of good news he wasn't placed on IR and the team must think he has a shot to get back on the field sooner than later. As for the Giants RB situatoin, it's a tough matchup on TNF against the 49ers. Look for Breida and Gray to split up the workload with Brightwell a possible change of pace and passing down option.
