Saquon Barkley injury update: Will the Giants RB feature in Week 14?  

The New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley is playing his fifth season in the NFL. The Giants will face the Philadelphia Eagles on December 11, at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey. Saquon Barkley is one name in the spotlight ahead of Sunday's matchup.

The running back was questionable ahead of the game against the Eagles. Barkley suffered a neck injury last week and was limited to playing in Thursday and Friday practice sessions. Head coach Brian Daboll has confirmed that Barkley will start for the Giants against the Eagles.

Barkley had a 50-50 proposition to play in Week 14 which are some unpleasant odds for fantasy owners. The worry is that Barkley will see a reduced snap count or exacerbate his injury. If Saquan Barkley is on your fantasy roster, you can't not start him as his upside is too great. You'll just have to grit your teeth and ride every tackle.
