New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley has a sprained right ankle and his status for Thursday night's game against the San Francisco 49ers is uncertain, a person familiar with the injury told The Associated Press on Monday.
He will talk again on Tuesday in Tempe, Arizona, where the Giants are preparing for Thursday's game.
Daboll had said Barkley was being sent for further tests but his availability would probably be a game-time decision.
Quarterback Daniel Jones said it will take a big effort to replace Barkley if he can't play.
Two plays before he got hurt, Barkley had a 16-yard run to get the Giants into position for the go-ahead field goal.
