The former No 2 overall pick will hit free agency for the first time in his career. There will be a long list of suitors this offseason
New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley is heading for free agency for the first time in his career, avoiding the franchise tag ahead of Tuesday’s deadline to apply the restrictive marker.
General manager Joe Schoen said last week that the Giants weren’t taking the tag off the table, but the team opted against tagging Barkley for a second straight year because of a cost of $12.1m, according to multiple reports.
