The Kansas City Chiefs have one of the most exciting offenses in the NFL, thanks to players like Patrick Mahomes, Tyreek Hill and Travis Kelce. Imagine if they also had former No. 2 overall pick Saquon Barkley. There’s speculation the Chiefs could trade for the Giants running back this offseason.
Barkley, who’s mostly underwhelmed during his NFL career due to injuries, is entering the final year of his rookie contract. It’s unlikely the Giants are going to sign him to a big contract. So what does that mean for Barkley’s future? There’s major speculation the Giants will trade him, specifically ahead of the 2022 NFL Draft.
“I’m open to everything…,” Giants GM Joe Schoen said on Tuesday when asked about potentially trading Barkley this offseason.
Kansas City is currently being floated as a potential landing spot for Barkley if the Giants do end up trading him.
“If the Chiefs were really smart they would trade for Saquon Barkley,” tweeted ESPN’s Eric Moody.

Others, however, aren’t exactly sold it’d be the right move for the Chiefs.
“I need someone to walk me through any reasonable argument for the Chiefs to trade for Saquon Barkley like I keep reading. Feels ludicrous but maybe I’m missing something,” a fan wrote.

“Stop trying to talk yourself and others into Saquon Barkley,” a fan added.
Should the Chiefs try and acquire Giants running back Saquon Barkley via trade? It’s an interesting proposition, that’s for sure.
