Saquon Barkley spent six years with the Giants and won one playoff game. He's now in the Super Bowl with the Eagles, Big Blue's bitter rivals.

One of the biggest gambles New York Giants general manager Joe Schoen has taken during his 3+ years as the organization's chief decision-maker was letting running back Saquon Barkley test the open market last offseason rather than returning to the negotiating table.

As Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley leads his team to Sunday’s Super Bowl game, the New York Giants remain a punching bag for at least one more game for letting him go.

Barkley spent the first six seasons of his professional career with the Giants but was unable to come to an agreement on a long-term contract. He negotiated for two years with general manager Joe Schoen but in the end, the Giants GM let him walk over roughly $2 million.

The Giants deserve the criticism they're getting for allowing Barkley to walk in free agency, says former receiver.

Former New York Giants GM Dave Gettleman is “thrilled” for Saquon Barkley and wants the world to remember that he got it right in 2018.
