Injury Update: Saquon Barkley is ruled Out with an ankle injury.
— New York Giants (@Giants) October 10, 2021
The Giants entered today missing their fair share of weapons. Top receivers Sterling Shepard and Darius Slayton were ruled out and now they’re without their best player in Saquon Barkley.
Last week, Barkley had his best game of the season with over 100 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns. Early in the Week 5 matchup with Dallas, Barkley ran a slant and rolled his ankle on Jourdan Lewis, and immediately fell to the ground.
Saquon Barkley rolled his ankle on a Cowboys defensive player and was carted off into the locker room.

Barkley was able to make it to the sideline and large swelling built up quickly, causing New York to bring out the cart for their star running back. The Giants immediately ruled Barkley out with the ankle injury and the severity of it is yet to be determined.
Devontae Booker will take over a large portion of the snaps for Barkley in his absence.
