What Giants need to know
Running back Saquon Barkley told reporters after the game that the Giants’ loss to the Raiders, along with everything that happened during those sixty minutes, “definitely sucks” after a week full of hope, particularly with regard to the returns of Daniel Jones, Andrew Thomas, and Evan Neal.
Jones exited with a potentially season-ending knee injury. Neal went with another injury to his ankle. The Las Vegas club, who had not scored more than 21 points in any of the first eight weeks of the season, was also given 30 points by the Giants, who fell to 2-7.
Barkley remarked, “You gotta be a pro at it.” Can’t offer any justifications. We still have an extended season ahead of us.
