New York Giants fans remain deeply upset about Saquon Barkley’s decision to join their arch-rival, the Philadelphia Eagles. While they might have accepted him moving to any other team, this particular choice felt like a betrayal.
For the upcoming NFL season, the Giants will feature a completely revamped running back lineup. Devin Singletary is expected to lead the backfield, with Eric Gray and rookie Tyrone Tracy Jr. backing him up on the depth chart. Fans got a sneak peek of the changes in a trailer posted on the team’s Twitter page on Tuesday, teasing an episode set to air on July 2. This offseason edition will tackle various narratives, including the circumstances surrounding Barkley’s departure. Did Barkley mislead the public about the Giants’ contract offers?
The trailer hints at a significant conversation between general manager Joe Schoen and Barkley regarding a contract. If Barkley indeed misrepresented the situation, the first face-off between the Eagles and Giants on October 20 at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, promises to be even more charged. Twitter is buzzing with reactions from Giants fans eager to uncover the truth behind Barkley’s departure. Barkley has been responding to the criticism on social media this offseason, suggesting that the already intense Eagles-Giants rivalry is about to become even more dramatic. Sometimes business matters can feel very personal.
