Ex-New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley has weighed in on his former team cutting ties with quarterback Daniel Jones.
The Giants on Friday granted Jones his release after the QB requested it from Giants president John Mara. With Jones joining Barkley on the list of recently departed Giants, the team has committed to moving toward a new era.
Barkley spoke to reporters Friday after news broke that Jones was being released. The Philadelphia Eagles running back said that his friendship with Jones has remained intact since his move to Philly, which has been a terrific situation for Barkley thus far. Barkley said that he’s hoping Jones can find a similar restart elsewhere.
“It sucks to see how it all went down,” said Barkley. “I’ve got nothing but great things to say about him. It didn’t work for me over there, and I’m doing well over here. Hopefully, he can find the same kinda fresh start and success.”
