Per Giants beat reporter Dan Duggan, RB Saquon Barkley was absent from New York's practice on Thursday as he continues to rehab his ankle injury. (Dan Duggan on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

While there is no concrete time table for Barkley's return from a low-ankle sprain, the start RB is not expected to play in Week 6 for the Giants. When Barkley exited in Week 5 the Giants turned to backup RB Devontae Booker who handled all of the rushing volume for the remainder of the game. Booker should be viewed as a volume based low-end RB 2 in what could be a tough matchup vs the Rams in Week 6.
