ESPN report: Giants rookie RB already making waves at training.

Many supporters of the New York Giants were disappointed with Saquon Barkley’s free agency departure. The loss of such a potent attacking playmaker was detrimental to the team’s output. The selection of Malik Nabers with the sixth overall choice, though, is expected to partially offset that decreased production.

Nabers can, in fact, equal or even surpass Barkley’s influence during his time with the Giants and play a major role in the following season and beyond.

Tyrone Tracy, Emerging Rookie for the Giants
Although all eyes are on Nabers and his spectacular accomplishments during training camp, Tyrone Tracy, a rookie selected in the fifth round, is quietly leaving his imprint. Tracy, a recent Purdue University wide receiver turned running back, was mostly used as a rusher last season, racking up 714 yards and eight touchdowns on 114 attempts. His tires have almost no tread, which is ideal for a team searching for an offensive backfield guy with a lot of upside.

His 4.44 yards after contact average from the previous season was the greatest in college football, showcasing his exceptional effectiveness in space and his ability to reliably elude the initial defender. He will probably benefit from the NFL’s new regulations prohibiting hip-drop tackles, which will make it easier for him to gain extra yards.

Tracy’s Views and Possible Position
Tracy has a simple yet aggressive game plan: he wants to score on every possession. “My goal is to score every time I touch the ball,” Tracy told Art Stapleton of NorthJersey.com. “I want to touch the ball with extreme explosiveness. I’m going to make an effort to always do that. His attitude creates a competitive atmosphere that improves the output of both him and his teammates.

Tracy’s potential as a third-down runner and receiver, in addition to his rush ability, may be very advantageous to the Giants. His ability to block passes, a talent that Saquon Barkley frequently lacked, was demonstrated during training camp, adding to his worth to the squad.

Tracy’s Future Path
Tracy’s explosive rushes, tenacity on first contact, and pass-catching skills make him a great possibility to establish a significant part in the offense as the season progresses, even though Devin Singletary is still the Giants’ primary running back. Given his versatility, he might end up being a key component of the Giants’ plan and bring a new dimension to their playbook.
