Saquon Barkley Health, Injury Updates & History

He dealt with back tightness in early November, otherwise had a fully healthy season rushing for 200...

There could be concern for Saquon Barkley ahead of the Super Bowl, clearly he had a great NFC Championship, 2 touchdowns on 2 carries the big long run right off the bat, but afterwards he was seen with the massage gun on his calf, distal calf proximal Achilles, we don't have worry for Achilles tendon rupture but the calf is an issue that may indeed linger, he was on the sidelines on the exercise bike, Kenneth Gainwell received some carries the rest of the game and a mixture of running backs, the blowout score helped give Barkley some rest, the 2 weeks before the Super Bowl will have Saquon Barkley near 100%

Will rest for W18 per head coach Nick Sirianni

Listed on the team's injury report with a back injury, we have no expectation of any issues going forward into W10 for Barkley against the Cowboys

Saquon Barkley played in 14 games last season. He sustained a high ankle sprain in a pileup during Week 2 and missed the next three games. Barkley played every game after that but still had a few injuries throughout the season. Among them were valgus stress to his left elbow from a hyperextension in Week 7, but he returned mid-game with an elbow brace. He re-aggravated the right ankle sprain in Week 10 but missed no time, although both the ankle and elbow injuries lingered. He experienced no setbacks in the offseason and is expected to be healthy to start the 2024 season.

LP with an elbow injury that has lingered since midseason - will play through with no medical downgrade

Reinjured right ankle in W10 but played through - will likely miss some practice time the rest of the season for maintenance - QB issues are a bigger threat for his effectiveness
