The 2024 NFL season is approaching, and Giants fans are building excitement. Training camp will kick off on July 24th for the veteran players. Let’s take a look at the Giants’ running back room as the team heads into training camp.
Devin Singletary
Devin Singletary’s signing might have flown under the radar, but it was a smart move. He thrived under Daboll in Buffalo and proved his versatility by performing well in Houston last season.
As the veteran, Singletary will get the early touches out of the backfield and aim to stabilize the Giants’ running back room in Barkley’s absence.
Eric Gray
Eric Gray had a tough rookie season, largely due to struggles on special teams, but the Giants haven’t given up on him. He’s still a key part of their plans.
The question now is what role Gray will play in the offense. As of now we have him penciled into as a RB2.
Tyrone Tracy Jr.
Tracy started his college career at Iowa, playing wide receiver for four seasons before transferring to Purdue. At Purdue, he switched to running back and had a strong 2023 season.
Many experts believe he’ll succeed at the NFL level. He may be a pleasant surprise for fellow Giants fans
Jashaun Corbin
Corbin, who went undrafted, spent the 2022 season on the Giants’ practice squad. The following year he was cut by the Giants at the end of the preseason and joined the Jacksonville Jaguars’ practice squad.
With injuries mounting to the running back position Corbin made a return to Big Blue.
Corbin appeared in 6 games for the Giants last season. He had just one rushing attempt for a single yard, and caught three passes for 12 yards.
He’s going to have an another tough time cracking the final 53, but he does have familiarity on his side knowing the offense from prior years.
Dante Miller
Dante Miller, who started his college career at Columbia in the Ivy League, before transferring to South Carolina.
At South Carolina’s recent pro day, Turbo showcased his nickname by running a 4.27-second 40-yard dash and completing 28 reps on the 225-pound bench press..
The Giants are thin at running back , it wouldn’t surprise me to see him on the squad.
Final thoughts.
Overall, the New York Giants’ running back situation is thin, and they will likely need to add veteran presence to this group.
