Covers analyst Robert Criscola wrote about the odds for Barkley on Friday, February 9 (via DraftKings). Currently, the New York Giants, Barkley’s original team, have the highest chance of bringing back their star RB (150).
Barkley is an electric talent that when healthy is one of the premier running backs in the league. Combining him with QB Lamar Jackson would make their running game a nightmare for opposing defenses.
