Saquon Barkley Refuses to Sign Franchise Tag and Misses Giants' Offseason Program

Saquon Barkley will not sign the franchise tag and will not attend the New York Giants' voluntary offseason workout program. The deadline for Barkley and his representatives to work out a long-term deal with the Giants is July 17. Skipping the voluntary workouts is a standard ploy by tagged players to increase pressure on their team to reach a long-term deal. The Giants reportedly do not have much interest in signing Barkley to a long-term deal at this point.
