Good for Nick Sirianni. He’s resting Saquon Barkley instead of playing him on Sunday against the Giants and giving him a chance to break the all-time rushing record.
If Barkley had done it, there would be an asterisk beside it anyway, because he didn’t have the record after the same number of games Eric Dickerson played when he set the mark in 1984. Barkley needed the extra game added to the schedule, so why risk injury for a Maris-type mark?
