Saquon Barkley scores fifth rushing touchdown in loss to Falcons

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley rushed 14 times for 43 yards and a touchdown and caught nine passes for 51 yards in Monday night's loss to the Atlanta Falcons.

Fantasy Impact:

Barkley continues to be a focal point of the New York offense and has now scored seven touchdowns through the first seven weeks of the season, with five rushing scores and two as a receiver. While he does not have a great yards per attempt rushing average due mostly to poor offensive line play, he has regularly proven to be a dangerous weapon when given even small amounts of space. Even with the New York Giants struggling with consistency on offense, Barkley is clearly one of the best options in fantasy due to his volume and big-play potential.
