All NFL teams must trim their roster down to the 53 men they will start the regular season with on Tuesday, and fans are paying close attention to where All-Pro running back Jonathan Taylor might end up. 

The Indianapolis Colts gave Taylor and his team until Tuesday to figure out a trade, as they'd like to know what to do with him for their roster if he remains on the team. 

It's one of the main storylines in the NFL, so the New York Giants' Saquon Barkley is well aware of what's going on with his fellow running back brother.

Barkley told Fox News Digital at a promotional event that while he hasn't been in contact with Taylor, nor does he know the exact situation in Indy, he knows what type of talent the Colts are willing to move on from.

"All I can say is that I know Jonathan Taylor is one of the best players in the league," Barkley explained. "I see he had a down year last year battling some injuries. But he showed, when he’s healthy, what he’s able to do and what he’s able to bring to an offense and to a team. 

He continued: "Hopefully the trade is able to go through, and he’s able to go to a team that respects him and values him, and hopefully he can go out and show out and put on this year."
