Giants RB Devin Singletary (groin) got in a limited practice on Wednesday. HC Brian Daboll said afterward that Singletary is "trending in the right direction." We're expecting him back for Sunday night's game vs. the Bengals, although it's possible that Singletary cedes more work to RB Tyrone Tracy.
Giants rookie RB Tyrone Tracy took advantage of his opportunity Sunday against the Seahawks. With starter Devin Singletary out, Tracy dominated backfield playing time. He handled 82% of the team's RB carries and ran five more pass routes than No. 2 RB Eric Gray. Tracy racked up 129 yards on 18 carries. That included runs of 27, 25, and 13 yards. He added 1 reception for a yard among 2 targets.
Giants RB Devin Singletary (groin) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Seahawks. That leaves New York’s backfield to Tyrone Tracy, Eric Gray, and Dante Miller. Tracy is the best bet for touches, particularly in the passing game. But consider him just a RB3 or Flex play with the Giants’ implied total sitting at 17.75 points.
Giants RB Devin Singletary (groin) is listed as doubtful for this weekend’s game vs. the Seahawks. He returned to practice on Friday but evidently isn’t likely to be ready by Sunday. Singletary’s absence will leave the backfield to Tyrone Tracy and Eric Gray. Both guys figure to be involved, but Tracy has been playing ahead of Gray all season and is the better fantasy bet. Don’t overrate him, though. The Giants offense figures to struggle on the road without WR Malik Nabers against a tough defense. Their implied total is sitting at just 17.75 points – second lowest of the week.

The Giants selected Purdue RB Tyrone Tracy in Round 5 of the NFL Draft. This prospect fired us up in the pre-draft process. One reason why: Tracy’s background as a WR. His college career began as a WR at Iowa, where he’d make an impact in 2019 following a 2018 redshirt (36 catches, 589 yards, 3 TDs). A pandemic-shortened 2020 slowed progress, and then Tracy’s role dipped in 2021. Tracy transferred to Purdue ahead of the 2022 season in search of more touches. Instead, he finished 5th on the team in catches; 6th in receiving yards. 2023 turned up a position switch – one that changed the trajectory of his pro prospects. “I was a little skeptical at first,” Tracy said of the move. “I didn’t know if he [new HC Ryan Walters] was trying to say I’m not a good receiver, or ‘Hey, man, we actually think you can do this.’ I kind of just prayed about it. I talked to my mom and dad about it. And my dad was basically saying, ‘I know you’ve been doing this your whole life.’” Tracy saw only 114 carries last fall, but he excelled in the limited opportunities. Among 157 RBs with 100+ attempts, he ranked top-20 in yards per carry, yards after contact per attempt, and PFF Elusive Rating. The 5’11, 209-pounder popped in 8 rushing scores. Tracy’s game needs refinement, but his raw athleticism reminded us of Antonio Gibson coming out of Memphis. His stock only increased at the NFL Combine with a 9.78 Relative Athletic Score. The main negative here surround’s Tracy’s advanced age – he’ll turn 25 in November. With only 148 career carries, though, he enters the league without much wear and tear. Getting Round 5 draft capital is a small win for Tracy. And the landing spot is good. The Giants’ RB depth chart is topped by Devin Singletary, who signed a modest three-year, $16.5 million deal in free agency. There’s room for Tracy to carve out a role here – particularly in the passing game – as early as this season.
