Giants aware of video of maskless Jones, Barkley

-

The New York Giants say they are aware of a video that shows starting quarterbac­k Daniel Jones and injured running back Saquon Barkley maskless and not practicing social distancing while at a bar.

“We are looking into the nature and context of what is on the video,” the team said in a statement.

The video was posted on Instagram, but has since been taken down.

Jones and Barkley could face discipline from the Giants, the NFL or both. BILLS TE KNOX TESTS POSITIVE FOR COVID-19 >> Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox has tested positive for the coronaviru­s and will miss today’s road game against the New York Jets.
