But that's Evgeny Kuznetsov Jersey not something we're actively looking to do, let's put it that way."During the NFL Scouting Combine, reports suggested the Giants had discu sed potentially moving on from Barkley. Mara's comments indicate otherwise, but part of the semantics could be that the return in such a trade makes little sense for Big Blue, given that any partner would likely require New York to eat a good portion of Barkley's $7.217 million salary in the final year of his rookie contract.One of the most popular players in New York, Barkley's career has nosedived due to injury the past two seasons.

I still think he's a really good player. He could potentially have a very big year this year. But at the end of the day the head coach and general manager make those decisions."
