Najee Harris expected to play in preseason finale, could be significant part of Giants' backfield in 2026
Tyrone Tracy's stock has dropped after miscues
New York Giants running back Najee Harris took some first-team reps during Tuesday's practice, according to Pat Leonard. The Giants rotated their backs, so Harris hasn't suddenly jumped to the top of the depth chart, but his involvement is notable just one week after signing with the team. Cam Skattebo is still listed alone at RB1 on New York's latest unofficial depth chart, with Harris, Tyrone Tracy Jr. and Devin Singletary grouped behind him. Jordan Raanan previously reported that Harris was brought in under the premise that he would be a significant contributor, and the veteran is already starting to see work with the starters. Harris is coming back from the Achilles tear that ended his 2025 season after three games. Before that, he topped 1,000 rushing yards in each of his four seasons with Pittsburgh. Tuesday's rotation doesn't settle anything behind Skattebo, but Harris is clearly getting an opportunity to earn a piece of the Giants' backfield

This article discusses potential stock movements for Malachi Fields and Tyrone Tracy of the New York Giants
Jaxson Dart's first preseason game of the 2026 season included an impressive scoring drive that was capped off with a touchdown pass to Malachi Fields . The drive also included a big hit that led to yet another visit to the blue tent, a sight Giants fans hope to see far less of this season after seeing it far too often in 2025. Dart is also less than enthused with the regularity of his visits to the blue tent. He said as much following the Giants' 13-10 loss to the Vikings . "I really respect the rules and the thought behind the NFL in keeping players healthy," Dart said . "At the same time, I'm still puzzled by just feeling like, every time I get hit, I find my way in there. Which, at times, I'm trying to wrap my head around." Dart went to the blue tent after he was blindsided by Vikings safety Jay Ward , who hit Dart after he got past Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr . Tracy said afterward that there was a "miscommunication" on the play. "On that play I heard an alert to the other side, so I had my eyes to the left instead of the right," Tracy said of the play. "There isn't really anything I can do at that point besides apologize and tell him it isn't going to happen again, which it won't. I don't have many of those on my film pass-blocking wise. It ain't going to happen again." BIG FOOTBALL HITS ARE SO BACK. Stream on @NFLPlus pic.twitter.com/11JOVdunxm After being evaluated in the blue tent, Dart returned to the game and finished the drive by hitting Fields for a 15-yard score. On the play, Dart exuded his impressive athleticism and downfield vision. He eluded several tacklers before rolling out and finding Fields in the end zone. "Thought it was a good drive by the offense in just being resilient," Dart said. "Us being able to have a big play in the red zone on a scramble drill. Malachi, just showing what he's been consistently showing all through camp. Continued to play along with the play and being able to make a contested catch. Was really proud of the protection up front and the resiliency of the whole drive." What a throw on the run from Dart for the touchdown 🎯 Stream on @NFLPlus pic.twitter.com/aRzenZx2L5 The drive in many ways symbolized Dart's rookie season. While he showed his promise throughout his rookie campaign, Dart also sustained way too many hits that were, at times, due to his decision to put himself in harm's way. It became a major talking point; late in the season, Hall of Famer Troy Aikman publicly told Dart to do a better job in terms of taking care of himself. Despite some of the backlash, Dart made it clear that he has no plans to change his playstyle. "I'm going to get hit if I'm in the pocket or outside the pocket," he said at the time . "I've played this way my whole entire life. It shouldn't be any shocker to anybody if you've followed along with my career. We're not playing soccer out here. You're going to get hit, things happen. It's just part of the game." Regarding Saturday's hit, there wasn't much Dart could do as it was the result of a missed blocking assignment. Dart also couldn't control the NFL's decision to send him to the blue tent, a move that surprised Giants coach John Harbaugh, though Harbaugh didn't question it. "Their job is to err on the side of player safety," Harbaugh said , "so I can't argue with that, either."
Malik Nabers has a good chance of playing in Week 1 after participating in team drills
Wednesday was another strong day at practice for New York Giants veteran wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr., according to Jordan Raanan of ESPN. Beckham had four catches in team drills and made some tough grabs. He has taken advantage of the opportunities with both Malik Nabers and Darius Slayton sitting out with injuries early in training camp. Raanan adds that it's pretty important for OBJ to stand out, since he's on the roster bubble in camp and the preseason. The 33-year-old former 12th overall pick in 2014 by the Giants out of LSU didn't play at all in 2025 and looked washed up in 2023 and 2024 with the Baltimore Ravens and Miami Dolphins, respectively, catching a combined 44 passes on 82 targets for just 620 yards and three touchdowns in 23 games (six starts). He may have found a spark of energy in his return to the Big Apple, but even if Beckham makes the team's active roster going into Week 1, he's unlikely to have a big enough role on offense to warrant attention in the vast majority of fantasy leagues
Did New York Giants head coach John Harbaugh go ballistic when he saw the video of running back Cam Skattebo , coming back from a dislocated ankle, fall while attempting a backflip over the weekend? Not exactly. “My reaction was, dude, at least stick it,” Harbaugh said while appearing on the ‘Bleav in Giants’ podcast with Bob Papa and Carl Banks. “Land the thing if you’re gonna do it.” Harbaugh added that “Skat’s gonna be ready to go” training camp. He said he had not spoken to the second-year running back about the incident. “He’s been working super-hard. He’s really been training like crazy, and his mind is on camp,” Harbaugh said. “He’s healthy. He’s ready to roll, and I can’t wait to see him out there at practice.” Skattebo reacted to the furor over his flop by saying “I will not hurt myself before the season.” Skattebo was a fourth-round pick by the Giants in 2025. He averaged 4.1 yards per carry in eight games before being injured. The Giants are anticipating he and Tyrone Tracy will form a solid combination at running back
There’s a long history of afterthoughts getting an opportunity and becoming league winners at running back. It can happen because of an injury to the guy in front of them. Other times, an offense needs a spark. Whatever the case, rostering those players before they become valuable can be the difference between winning a title and falling short. Below, I highlight 10 backup running backs worth targeting late in seasonal drafts. If things break their way, there is a path for each guy to become a weekly difference-maker in 2026. If the offseason reports are to be believed, then Blake Corum might be more than your average backup in 2026. Last season, the former Wolverine played 28.9% of the snaps. That could jump to 40-45% this season, as rumors of a near-even carry split between Corum and starter Kyren Williams continue to persist like clockwork. If that happens, Corum would have a weekly FLEX appeal. In 2025, while rushing for 746 yards and six touchdowns, he averaged 5.1 yards per carry (YPC). Corum also ranked second among all ballcarriers in Explosive Play Rating (122.9), fifth in EPA (+20), and 14th in juke rate (24.8%). Give him the ball, and good things happen. Blake Corum ‘s 2025 EPX Outside of his standalone value, Corum carries immense contingent upside if Williams misses any time. He’d be ranked as an RB1 any week he was projected to get the bulk of the work. You never want to forecast injuries, but that’s just one more reason Corum is an intriguing target once you get outside the top 30 running backs. Fun fact: Tyrone Tracy Jr. has averaged 10.7 fantasy points per game in each of his first two NFL seasons. He’s been consistent, averaging 790 rushing yards, 37 receptions, 286 receiving yards, and five touchdowns per season as a pro. Tyrone Tracy’s Seasonal Stats Those are solid RB3 or FLEX numbers in their own right. But Tracy could play a larger role in 2026 as the Giants ease Cam Skattebo back from a broken tibia and fractured ankle. Should the second-year back suffer any setbacks — or miss any other time, which is a very real possibility, given his reckless play style — Tracy would be the featured back. Tracy is a player no one seems to be talking about, yet he has the potential to put up big-time numbers should anything happen to Skattebo, who plays the position like an enraged bighorn sheep. Because of that, fantasy managers would be wise to take a swing on Tracy in the double-digit rounds. Apparently, this is the summer of Jonathon Brooks . Even though he hasn’t played a snap in nearly two years because of back-to-back ACL tears, Brooks is already being drafted ahead of teammate Chuba Hubbard in some big-money leagues. I understand wanting to find an edge against the competition, but this feels a wee bit aggressive. Brooks is a complete mystery box at this point. He has just 12 touches as a pro under his belt and essentially only 10 games of collegiate production, which came during his junior year at Texas. That said, Hubbard was among the least efficient and least explosive backs in football last year. If Brooks looks like the same player we saw in 2023 — when he amassed over 1,400 total yards — then it might not take much for him to overtake Hubbard and seize the RB1 role. just traded the 2.02 for 2.10 + jonathon brooks pic.twitter.com/f59lW5prga — The Podfather (@Fantasy_Mansion) April 5, 2026 If he does that, that’s certainly a scenario where Brooks could smash down the stretch. But with so much being unknown, be wary of his price in drafts. He’s a fun click to gamble on, but only if the cost stays relatively cheap. Like Tracy Jr., Dylan Sampson is backing up a teammate who’s coming back from a brutal lower-leg injury. Quinshon Judkins broke his fibula and dislocated his ankle in Week 16 last year. He looked spry in minicamp, but what if he suffers any setbacks? Dylan Sampson ‘s Advanced Metrics Enter Sampson. The 21-year-old only rushed for 175 yards as a rookie, but he showed he can be a d [... truncated ...]
The Giants were seen as a potential landing spot for running back Jeremiyah Love in the first round of this year’s draft, but they never had a chance to consider him while on the clock because Arizona made Love the third overall choice. It doesn’t sound like that’s an issue for head coach John Harbaugh. Tyrone Tracy had 2,151 yards from scrimmage over his first two seasons and Cam Skattebo returned to practice at the end of the team’s minicamp last month. Skattebo, who scored seven touchdowns in eight games as a rookie, is coming off a serious ankle injury, but Harbaugh expressed little concern about his ability to pick up where he left off last year. “I thought he was just what you saw, a downhill runner, a tone-setter type runner,” Harbaugh said, via a transcript from the team. “He’s a tough tackle. That’s what you look for. How many guys can make yards when they’re not supposed to make yards on their own? It seems to me he was that kind of guy at Arizona State and the exact same guy that I saw on tape last year. You guys know better. You watched him up close and personal. He’s a top-tier back, and he’s planning on playing that way this year.” A strong run game was a consistent part of Baltimore’s offenses during the Harbaugh era. Skattebo should be front and center as the Giants try to establish the same in Harbaugh’s first year on their sideline

Heading into the 2026 season, the Giants are coming off yet another disappointing season that saw them go 4-13, with head coach Brian Daboll fired midway through. But with new head coach John Harbaugh comes a new energy and a belief that this Giants team can take a big step forward. In this series, we’ll break down the depth chart for every position group. This time, we’ll go in-depth at the running back position… Starter : Cam Skattebo Backups: Tyrone Tracy, Devin Singletary Key additions/losses : Top Performer in 2025 : Tracy, with 740 rushing yards and two touchdowns 2025 ranking via PFF : 35th among 55 qualified players While the group is basically unchanged from last season, a healthy running back group for the Giants gives them a lot of different ways to attack teams. Skattebo isn't afraid to run players over, and his physical style can wear down defenders. Tracy, a former college wide receiver, can spread out wide and can be used as more of a receiving threat. And Singletary is bit of a mix of both players, and brings some balance when he gets on the field. The Giants may not have a three-down, lead back, but their stable of backs is more characteristic of what the NFL is today, as moth teams like to have a few options to deploy rather than deploying the same back on almost every play. When Skattebo suffered a complicated and gruesome looking ankle injury last season against the Eagles in October, his status for 2026, and even beyond, seemed in doubt. But by all indications, Skattebo is recovering well from an injury that looked like it could have been career-ending. The second year pro was on the field during Giants minicamp, and the expectation is he'll be available for the start of the regular season. It's a safe bet that Skattebo will play with the same edge and physicality that he did as a rookie, but it's also fair to wonder if there will be any physical limitations, or if he'll need to ramp up as the season goes on. It sounds strange to say that a player coming off a major injury needs to step up. But there's a reason why the Giants were linked to running backs in the 2026 NFL Draft. What would the Giants have done if Jeremiyah Love was still on the board at No. 5? Skattebo had 410 rushing yards and five touchdowns, and while his no-fear style of play has endeared him to fans, there's still a question about whether he can be an every-down kind of back, or if he's more of a change-of-pace wrecking ball. He'll probably need to be graded on a bit of a curve in 2026, but Skattebo needs to be the lead dog in the back. Barring anything unexpected, Skattebo, Tracy, and Singletary will be the three backs at the top of the depth chart. The only other names currently on the depth chart are Eric Gray , who has been more of a return option and disappointing overall in his Giants tenure, and first-year player Dante Miller . Perhaps the Giants add another veteran back at some point before of during training camp, but for now, there doesn't seem to be much competition. The Giants, after seemingly looking at adding a running back near the top of the draft, are running it back at the position in 2026. Skattebo seems to be progressing at an extraordinary rate, and if he's ready for the start of the season, he'd provide a huge boost. The trio of Skattebo, Tracy, and Singletary is a solid one, and they're all likely to see some playing time in new OC Matt Nagy 's system
Good morning, New York Giants fans! Eli Manning on how NY Giants QB Jaxson Dart can make a Year 2 leap ESPN offseason grades: Did the NY Giants close the gap? NFC East Grades: Where do the Giants stack up at tight end? Who wins the NFC East? It is the start of July. That means your favorite Giants players and coaches are somewhere other than the team facility, probably on vacation. The early weeks of summer are upon us, and if you cannot muster up some level of optimism about your favorite team, you are either a doomsayer or do not want to get your hopes up, at all. New York Giants futures picks: Under 7.5 wins (-110). I get having optimism with the Giants considering the wins left on the board last year and the likely upgrade at head coach. I’m just not sure the offense will be ready to push for a winning record in Dart’s first year under Matt Nagy, who was largely underwhelming in Chicago before serving as offensive coordinator in Kansas City , where the offense took a step backward the last two seasons. If Dart’s play style results in injury, the offense turns over to Jameis Winston , who is capable of making big plays for either team on every drive. I think this is probably a seven-win team and if the market will give me even odds on Under 7.5 at some point, I’ll likely jump on it. At least the Giants can feel better about the running back position with Skattebo near full health. Skattebo and Tyrone Tracy Jr. give them two solid options at the position. Tracy has averaged 4.3 yards per carry in his first two professional seasons and topped 1,000 total yards in each of the campaigns. Skattebo flashed with seven total touchdowns in eight games. Skattebo seems to be the kind of running back that Harbaugh prefers. “I thought he was just what you saw, a downhill runner, a tone-setter type runner. He’s a tough tackle. That’s what you look for,” Harbaugh said. “How many guys can make yards when they’re not supposed to make yards on their own? It seems to me he was that kind of guy at Arizona State and the exact same guy that I saw on tape last year. You guys know better. You watched him up close and personal. He’s a top tier back, and he’s planning on playing that way this year.” Jaxson Dart tops the leaderboard after converting more than half of his scrambles into first downs or touchdowns as a rookie. His confidence as a runner noticeably increased throughout the season, particularly as he became more comfortable extending plays outside the pocket. 5. New York Giants: Brian Burns and Abdul Carter . This is a bit of a future hedge, but also rooted in some underlying numbers. While Carter posted only four sacks as a rookie, he also notched 23 quarterback hits, ranking tied for 13th across the league. He also got better as the season progressed. After totaling more than one quarterback hit just once in his first 11 games, Carter did so three times over the final six. All told, he had 14 of his 23 QB hits over that span. As for Burns, he’s long been one of the premier pass rushers in the league. When New York acquired Burns from the Panthers, it gave up second- and fifth-round picks, while also signing him to a five-year, $141 million extension, including $87.5 million guaranteed. Last year, Burns earned second-team All-Pro honors after a career-best 16.5 sacks, 22 tackles for loss and 31 quarterback hits. League-wide, those figures ranked second, third and fourth, respectively.

Fullback Patrick Ricard, nicknamed 'Pancake Pat,' is the Giants' highest-paid fullback at $7.63 million over two years. Despite his unique role, which aligns more with blocking than traditional fullback duties, running back Tyrone Tracy believes Ricard will be a valuable asset, stating, 'Me and you are gonna make each other a lot of money.'
How good the New York Giants will be in 2027 will come down to a few things. Most important will be coaching and quarterback play, but the play of the roster as a whole will support both. The top end of the Giants’ roster boasts players who can be among the very best at their positions in the NFL. Andrew Thomas is among the NFL’s best left tackles, Malik Nabers has the potential to join the ranks of the elite receivers, and Brian Burns was in the DPOY conversation before Myles Garrett ascended to a higher plane of sack existence. But as the Brows tell us, a good team needs more than a handful of great players. A good team needs the unsung players to be great as well. So for this week, we want to know who you think will be the Giants’ best hidden gem? Who will be the player that when other fans of other teams ask us who they should know about, we say, “You gotta watch this guy”? Center John Michael Schmitz – A section of the fanbase was almost eager to cast Schmitz aside this offseason and hand Tyler Linderbaum a historic contract. The Giants, however, opted to give Schmitz his fourth year to prove that he can continue to elevate his game. He’s steadily improved each of his first three years, suggesting this year could be his best yet. The addition of right guard Sisi Mauigoa could allow Schmitz to make use of his athleticism to out-leverage and out-position defenders in a similar way to Linderbaum. Running back Tyrone Tracy – Generally, when people talk about the Giants’ roster, Tracy is the forgotten man on the offense. The best folks at the national level can seem to muster is that “he’s a nice player”. However, of the 35 receivers, 20 running backs, and 12 tight ends drafted last year, Tracy was the only one to eclipse 1,000 yards in each of his first two seasons. He seems to have cleaned up the fumbling issue that plagued his rookie year and has become a remarkably consistent and versatile producer as both a runner and receiver. Defensive tackle Darius Alexander – Alexander was considered a fringe first-round talent last year, but a remarkable defensive tackle class pushed him down to the Giants in the third round. He missed his entire spring due to an undisclosed medical issue, and it took a while for Alexander to get up to speed and flash the upside we saw on tape in college. However, he improved in the second half of the season and was a consistent presence in opponents’ backfields by the end of the year. The Giants have added a legion of experienced defensive tackles this year, but there’s still a massive void in their interior pass rush without Dexter Lawrence . Can Alexander take advantage of the opportunity? Nickel Ar’Darius Washington – The phrase “out of sight, out of mind” seems to come to mind with Washington. The undersized defensive back broke out for the Baltimore Ravens in 2024 and was an important part of one of the best defenses in the NFL that year. He was an absolute terror that year, and his versatility to execute both safety and slot corner responsibilities was very important to their scheme. Washington tore his Achilles tendon last offseason, but managed to return for the end of the year. Now Washington followed John Harbaugh to New York, and the Giants are returning to the style of defense in which he thrived two years ago. There will, of course, be other players who emerge as important pieces, particularly if the Giants’ roster exceeds the national media’s expectations. But of those players who might play important parts without the national buzz, who do you think will be the hidden gem? Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NFL.
