Tyrone Tracy scored a touchdown for the Giants, who are rotating all four running backs against the Saints.

By Cole Hartwell

Tyrone Tracy has worked his way back into John Harbaugh’s good graces and into the end zone for the Giants, who are rotating all four backs against the Saints in Week 6, according to Mike Garafolo.

What happened

Tracy was buried on the depth chart after a Week 1 fumble, Garafolo reported. On Sunday, he scored a touchdown for the Giants.

Context

Tracy has 4.7 PPR points this season, with 7 carries for 22 rushing yards and 3 targets for 2 receptions and 25 receiving yards. He has played 10% of snaps through Week 5.

In Week 5, Tracy had 5.1 PPR points on 3 carries for 6 rushing yards and 3 targets for 2 receptions and 25 receiving yards.

Depth chart

The Giants’ running back depth chart lists Cam Skattebo as RB1, Najee Harris as RB2, Tracy as RB3, and Devin Singletary as RB4.

Skattebo has 51.3 PPR points this season with 81 carries for 294 rushing yards and a touchdown. Harris has 11.2 PPR points with 27 carries for 97 rushing yards. Singletary has 14.7 PPR points with 9 carries for 25 rushing yards.

Timeline

On Oct. 18, Fantasy Football Desk reported that the Giants were expected to change their running back rotation for Sunday’s game against the New Orleans Saints. Harris was set to start with a larger role, while Skattebo was downgraded but still part of the mix after fumbles. All four backs, including Tracy, were expected to be active.

What’s next

The Giants are playing the New Orleans Saints at home in Week 6; the game was in progress as of the report.

Tyrone Tracy, buried on the depth chart after a Week 1 fumble, has worked his way back into John Harbaugh’s good graces and into the end zone for the #Giants, who are rotating all four backs today.

🏈 Fantasy impact

Tracy’s touchdown and involvement in the rotation could earn him more looks, but his volume remains limited with all four backs rotating. He had only 3 carries in Week 5 and ran 19% of snaps. The Giants’ backfield is a committee, and Tracy’s fantasy value is matchup-dependent. He is not a reliable start yet, but managers in deeper leagues can stash him as a bench option. Skattebo and Harris remain ahead of him on the depth chart.

Quick answers

Will Tyrone Tracy see more opportunities after his touchdown vs. the Saints?

The Giants are rotating all four running backs, according to Mike Garafolo. Tracy scored a touchdown, but the report does not indicate a change in his role.
