The New York Giants' decision to release Saquon Barkley has ignited backlash as the star running back thrives with the Eagles, drawing sharp comments from Dallas Cowboys’ Micah Parsons.

The Giants receive more and more backlash with every monster performance Saquon Barkley puts up in midnight green, but the decision to let him walk was a win for all parties involved.

Thanks to the offseason edition of "Hard Knocks," we know the Giants had a line they wouldn't cross when it came to retaining Saquon Barkley in free agency. The Eagles went farther than New York was willing to go in negotiations, and that brought the former No. 2 pick's time in East Rutherford to an end after six seasons.
