New York Giants running back \ufeffSaquon Barkley\ufeff has a shot to return for Week 5.<\/p>\n
Big Blue officially listed Barkley (ankle) as questionable for Sunday versus the Miami Dolphins.<\/p>\n
The star running back was limited in practice all week.<\/p>\n
“He’s practiced. He’s done stuff in team and some individual stuff,” coach Brian Daboll said of Barkley on Friday. “So, I think he’s made progress. We’ll just give him another day and see where he’s at.”<\/p>\n
Barkley suffered an ankle injury late in the Giants’ Week 2 win in Arizona. He’s missed the past two games, both blowout losses.<\/p>\n
In two games, Barkley has generated 114 yards and a touchdown on 29 carries while adding nine catches for 41 yards and another score.<\/p>\n
The Giants’ offense has struggled through the first month of the 2023 season. Barkley isn’t a cure-all for Big Blue’s offensive ills, but getting him back on the field this week would go a long way for the Giants’ chances of keeping pace with the high-flying Dolphins.<\/p>\n
