People are aghast at a video of an NYC studio apartment with an open shower in the kitchen. The small apartment in downtown Manhattan had been on the market for two months at $3,495 a month.

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.

Homes like these, however, are actually relatively common in New York City. "This apartment has allowed me to live in the center of NYC, which was a priority for me.
