Saquon Barkley (ankle) progressing at Giants practice
New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (ankle) will be "ramped up" in practice on Wednesday, per head coach Brian Daboll.
What It Means:
Barkley practiced on a limited basis each day last week before being ruled out for a third straight contest. He will hopefully be upgraded to full for Week 6 and play in Sunday night's game against the Buffalo Bills. Matt Breida will return to backup duty if Barkley is cleared to play.
Saquon is the RB13 in numberFire's Week 6 rankings and our models project him for 13.9 FanDuel points, with 16.8 carries, 72.2 rushing yards, 3.4 receptions, and 19.7 receiving yards. The Bills are allowing the ninth-most FanDuel points per game to running backs this season and their run defense ranks 22nd, according to our opponent-adjusted NEP model.
