Overview
- Reports on Sunday say the Giants will give Najee Harris the start for Week 6 while keeping Cam Skattebo involved but with fewer snaps.
- ESPN reporters Jordan Raanan and Jeremy Fowler are the primary sources for the expected change and the information should be treated as team-sourced reporting rather than an official game-day announcement.
- All four running backs—Najee Harris, Cam Skattebo, Tyrone Tracy and Devin Singletary—are expected to be active as New York moves from a clear lead back to a larger committee.
- Skattebo has fumbled four times in five games this season, including a lost overtime fumble that nearly cost the Giants a win, and his efficiency has declined to 3.6 yards per carry on 81 attempts.
- The shake-up has clear short-term fantasy implications because touches will be split more widely and Harris should be stashed to see how he performs, while Skattebo’s immediate trust and weekly startability are reduced.
