Giants Elevate Tyrone Tracy Jr. to Lead Back After Cam Skattebo’s Season-Ending Ankle Surgery

The second-year runner steps in with fresher legs after limited snaps this season.

Overview

  • Cam Skattebo sustained a severe right-ankle injury in Philadelphia, underwent surgery and was placed on injured reserve for the rest of the season.
  • Tyrone Tracy Jr. resumes the RB1 role after leading the Giants in 2024 with 839 rushing yards and five touchdowns, plus notable receiving production.
  • Tracy has logged only 45 carries this year, a light workload the team believes positions him to handle more touches now.
  • Coaches plan to tailor the ground game to Tracy’s strengths with Devin Singletary also moving back into a prominent role in the rotation.
  • Veterans expressed confidence in Tracy’s readiness, and quarterback Jaxson Dart was named NFL Offensive Rookie of the Month for October.
