The Giants have agreed to a 4-year, $160 million deal with Daniel Jones, sources told ESPN, and have used their franchise tag on Saquon Barkley.
Barkley once again showed he can be a difference-maker, playing a full season in 2022 for the first time since his rookie year in 2018 and finishing fourth in the NFL with 1,312 rushing yards. Schoen said the Giants planned to use their franchise tag on Jones if the sides were unable to reach a deal, which likely would have resulted in Barkley becoming a free agent. I have great respect for this organization, the Maras, the Tisches, my coaches and teammates. He also played brilliantly in leading New York to a postseason victory over Barkley will make $10.091 million in 2023 under the nonexclusive franchise tender.

The Giants and Barkley will continue to discuss a long-term contract, a conversation that began during the team's bye week in November.
That year, linebacker Carl Banks received a transition tag (which gives a team the right to match any offer – but no compensation if the player leaves). Defensive lineman Leonard Williams was the last Giants player tagged, in both 2020 and 2021. It was the first time since his 2018 Rookie of the Year season that Barkley did not miss a game due to injury. The Giants and Barkley can continue to negotiate a long-term contract until July 17; if they can't reach a multi-year extension, Barkley will play under his franchise tag this season. Barkley finished with career-high totals of 295 carries for 1,312 yards – the NFL's fourth-highest total - and scored 10 touchdowns, one less than his rookie total.
