In an unexpected turn of events, star running back Saquon Barkley of the New York Giants, has unveiled his aggressive side, expressing frustration towards the franchise’s handling of the 2023 NFL season. The tension escalated as the Giants crossed the deadline for franchise tagging Barkley, leaving the talented player in a state of dismay.

Barkley stated, “My leverage is I could say, ‘f— you’ to the Giants, I could say, ‘f— you to my teammates, and be like, ‘You want me to show you my worth? You want me to show you how valuable I am to the team? I won’t show up. I won’t play a down.’ And that’s a play I could use.“

While a one-year contract remains an option, a multi-year deal for the 2023 season is no longer on the table. However, Barkley’s dilemma also extends to the potential of facing back-to-back franchise tags in 2024, which would cost the Giants a considerable amount. And depending on the ongoing rift, Barkley’s presence in the 2023 season remains in the dark.

Is Barkley going to miss the 2023 NFL season?

If Barkley ultimately decides to play in the 2023 season, he’ll be under a one-year contract valued at $10.091 million, of the franchise tag. However, dropping an insight by appearing on The Money Matters podcast,  Barkley admitted that the idea of sitting out the season has crossed his mind. But uncertainty still surrounds the situation, leaving fans eagerly awaiting news of Barkley’s plans.

Delivering relief to his admirers, Barkley also emphasized discussing the issue with his family before making a decision to withdraw from the season. As of now, it stands as a pillar of curiosity among the NFL fraternity with just 13 days left before the 2023 season kicks off.
