Ahead of the Giants&#8217; Week 4 loss to the Seattle Seahawks, Barkley also practiced in limited capacity, but drew a doubtful designation.<\/p>\n<h2>          <span>            Related Links          <\/span>        <\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>              Giants RB Saquon Barkley (ankle) questionable to play vs. Dolphins            <\/li>\n<li>              Giants head coach Brian Daboll downplays tablet toss, says he&#x27;s on same page with Daniel Jones            <\/li>\n<li>              Giants DC Martindale &#x27;sleeping like a baby&#x27; ahead of Dolphins game: &#x27;Every two hours I wake up and cry&#x27;            <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Barkley was injured in the Giants&#8217; Week 2 win over the Arizona Cardinals.<\/p>\n<p>He has been sorely missed as the Giants offense has sputtered in his absence, scoring a combined 15 points over the past two weeks in two losses. Barkley, who has missed multiple games in four of his six seasons, has been plagued by injuries throughout his career, and the Giants have gone 9-15 without him since he was drafted in 2018.<\/p>\n<p>In fairness, Big Blue has struggled with Barkley in the lineup, too. The 26-year-old two-time Pro Bowler has rushed for 114 yards on 29 carries and caught nine passes for 41 yards with two total touchdowns this season.<\/p>\n<p>New York enters Week 5 as the 32nd-ranked scoring offense.
