Video: Saquon Barkley Goes Down With Devastating Knee Injury vs. Chicago Bears

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley left Sunday’s game against the Chicago Bears with what appeared to a severe injury to his right knee.

Barkley was the second overall selection in the 2018 NFL Draft and had rushed for 2,310 yards and 17 touchdowns during his first two seasons.

Losing a player of Barkley’s caliber so early in the 2020 season would put some severe stress on the Giants’ ability to bounce back from a 12-36 record over the previous three seasons.

Last week in their 2020 opener, Barkley only rushed for six yards in the Giants’ loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Monday night.
