New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. is in line to serve as the team's lead back in Week 9 with rookie Cam Skattebo (ankle) sidelined for the remainder of the season. The 25-year-old began the season as the Giants' starter, but ended up missing two games due to a shoulder injury, which opened the door for Skattebo. Now, Tracy and veteran Devin Singletary are expected to see the majority of the snaps moving forward. Tracy hasn't been overly efficient with his touches in six games this season, handling 45 carries for 159 yards and a touchdown while adding 10 catches for 68 yards on 16 targets. The New York offense looks much more exciting with rookie Jaxson Dart at the helm, although they are lacking legitimate pass-catching threats at the moment. Tracy ranks as RotoBaller's RB17 for the Giants' Week 9 matchup at home against the San Francisco Giants.

New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. has had a relatively quiet season so far after missing two games with a shoulder injury, which allowed rookie Cam Skattebo to take over as lead back. With Skattebo now out for the season after suffering an ankle injury in Week 8 against the Eagles, Tracy is set up to handle the majority of the touches in New York's backfield. The 25-year-old worked as the Giants' lead back last season from Week 5 on and earned over 17 opportunities per game while playing 68.3% of the snaps. He averaged 14.3 PPR points per game during that stretch, ranking as RB20. Veteran Devin Singletary should mix in for touches occasionally, but most of the volume will likely go to Tracy. He's a must-add player this week and is worth a heavy FAAB investment if he is available.

New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. has had a disappointing second season in some respects, recording just 227 yards from scrimmage and a touchdown across six games played. However, Tracy Jr. could now find himself back in a lead role in the Giants' backfield after star rookie running back Cam Skattebo (ankle) suffered a season-ending dislocated ankle in Week 8. Tracy Jr. was productive as a rookie in 2024, recording 1,123 scrimmage yards and six touchdowns on 230 touches across 17 games (12 starts). The Giants could also give veteran Devin Singletary some touches, but Tracy Jr. should be expected to dominate touches. In any fantasy league where he is available, Tracy Jr. is a must-add player off the waiver wire heading into a Week 9 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers.

New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. remains a volatile, low-end flex option for the Week 8 road rematch against the Philadelphia Eagles, despite flashing with a 31-yard touchdown run last week. Currently ranked as the RB54 for the 2025 season and averaging only 5.48 Fantasy Points Per Game, Tracy is operating as the clear backup to Cam Skattebo. The divisional matchup presents a favorable rushing environment, as the Eagles defense ranks 25th against fantasy RBs, yielding an average of 23.39 points per game to the position. However, Tracy was completely shut down by this same defense in Week 6, logging just four carries for 6 yards and zero receptions, severely limiting his floor and making him reliant solely on an explosive play to hit value.

New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. is a low-end flex option for Week 7, as he is firmly relegated to the backup role behind rookie Cam Skattebo. Tracy's season-long statistics are already concerning, with only 74 rushing yards on 26 carries for a meager 2.8 average yards per carry, and zero touchdowns on the year. This week presents a very challenging matchup, as the Broncos' defense ranks as the 4th-ranked fantasy defense against running backs, allowing just 17.47 fantasy points per game. Their rush defense is stifling, giving up only 89.0 rushing yards per game and having allowed a league-low two rushing touchdowns on the season. Following his return in Week 6, Tracy managed only four carries for six yards, suggesting minimal opportunity against one of the NFL's most dominant defenses.

New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. (shoulder) was removed from the final Week 6 injury report on Wednesday and will be active to face the division-rival Philadelphia Eagles on Thursday Night Football, according to Dan Salomone of Giants.com. Tracy will be returning from a two-game absence due to a dislocated right shoulder that he suffered in the Week 3 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. It's good news for the Giants' offense, but Tracy's fantasy managers may want to temper expectations in his first game back. Rookie Cam Skattebo handled lead-back duties in Tracy's absence and is expected to be the preferred backfield option moving forward over Tracy. In the first three games of the year, Tracy averaged just 3.1 yards per carry for 68 yards on 22 rushing attempts. We'd recommend fading Tracy in fantasy in his first game back, especially in a poor matchup.

New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll is optimistic that running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. (shoulder) will be able to make his return in Week 6 on Thursday night against the division-rival Philadelphia Eagles, according to Paul Schwartz of the New York Post. Tracy suffered a dislocated right shoulder in the Week 3 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs and has missed the last two games as a result. However, the 25-year-old has made good progress and was listed as a limited practice participant for the second straight day this week on Tuesday. It's good news for the Giants' offense as they take on a tough divisional opponent on a short week, but even if Tracy makes his return, fantasy managers will probably want to stay away. Rookie Cam Skattebo has taken over lead-back duties in the Big Apple. Tracy will still be involved when he's back, but he's likely to take on more of a secondary role, especially in his return.

New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. (shoulder) was listed as a limited practice participant on Monday's injury report. Tracy Jr. dislocated his shoulder in Week 3 and has missed each of the Giants' last two games, but he was reportedly making good progress ahead of Week 5. Tracy Jr. could be available on Thursday night, when the Giants take on the Philadelphia Eagles in the opening game of Week 6. Rookie running back Cam Skattebo has taken over as New York's lead running back in Tracy Jr.'s absence, recording 194 yards from scrimmage on 48 total touches over the last two weeks. Once Tracy Jr. returns, the two backs should be expected to split touches, but Skattebo may remain the team's lead rusher.

New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. (shoulder) has officially been ruled out for Sunday's Week 5 tilt on the road against the New Orleans Saints, according to Dan Salomone of Giants.com. New York will be without Tracy for a second straight game due to a dislocated right shoulder that he suffered in the Week 3 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. The good news is that the 25-year-old was able to practice for the first time on Friday, so he could have a chance to return for a Week 6 divisional clash next Thursday night against the Philadelphia Eagles. In the meantime on Sunday in the Big Easy, rookie Cam Skattebo will be New York's lead back again, and he should be a strong RB2 option with RB1 upside against the winless Saints. Devin Singletary will also have an expanded role for the second straight week. Tracy could be the clear RB2 for the G-Men behind Skattebo when he returns from his shoulder injury.

New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. (shoulder) remains doubtful to play in Week 5 against the New Orleans Saints, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. Tracy Jr. suffered a dislocated shoulder in Week 3 and was originally given a recovery timeline of two to four weeks, but is reportedly healing well. Tracy Jr. is still unlikely to play in Week 5, but it sounds as though he could return in Week 6 against the Philadelphia Eagles. Assuming Tracy Jr. is out against New Orleans, Giants rookie running back Cam Skattebo should play a workhorse role with veteran Devin Singletary occasionally mixing in. Skattebo profiles as a must-start fantasy running back in Week 5 against the Saints.

New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. (shoulder) is doing "a lot better" and is in line to get in some work at Friday's practice, according to head coach Brian Daboll. It will be the first time that Tracy has practiced since dislocating his shoulder in Week 3 against the Dallas Cowboys. It's good news for the second-year back, but it doesn't mean that Tracy will return to action for a Week 5 game in New Orleans against the Saints on Sunday. Giants.com writer Dan Salomone says that the Giants will see about Tracy's availability this weekend. In a best-case scenario, he'll be listed as questionable going into Sunday, but if he's somehow active, he'll likely be limited and play second fiddle to rookie Cam Skattebo in the backfield. Fantasy managers shouldn't be relying on Tracy in Week 5, and there's a good chance he'll be ruled out on Friday's final injury report.

New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. (shoulder) doesn't look particularly close to returning to action in Week 5 on the road against the New Orleans Saints after he missed a second straight practice this week on Thursday, according to Evan Barnes of Newsday Sports. Tracy dislocated his right shoulder in the Week 3 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs and has yet to practice or play since. Barring a quick recovery in the next couple of days, it's looking like the second-year back will miss a second straight game this weekend. Rookie Cam Skattebo is lined up for clear RB1 workhorse duties for the second straight contest in a plus matchup against the Saints, making him a high-end RB2 play in fantasy, at worst. Tracy began his second year in the NFL as New York's lead back, but even before his shoulder injury in Week 3, he was quickly losing his grasp as the lead back. When Tracy returns from his shoulder injury, he very well could be the change-of-pace option behind Skattebo for the rest of the season.

New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. (shoulder) did not practice Wednesday after already missing Week 4 following a separated shoulder in his matchup with the Chiefs in Week 3. The second-year back has managed just 68 rushing yards on 22 carries this season, and his absence has opened the door for Cam Skattebo to seize feature back duties in New York. Even when healthy, Tracy is unlikely to carve out more than a change-of-pace role in the Giants' offense, leaving his fantasy outlook extremely limited. Until there's a clear path to consistent touches, Tracy can be safely dropped in all formats, with his only current value coming as a speculative handcuff to Skattebo.
Oct 1, 2025 2:12 PM EST
New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. (shoulder) has officially been ruled out for his team's Week 4 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers, per ESPN's Jordan Raanan. Tracy Jr.'s absence is not surprising given that he dislocated his shoulder during the team's Week 3 loss and is expected to miss two to four weeks as a result of the injury. Without him, the Giants should hand a heavy workload to standout rookie running back Cam Skattebo, with veteran back Devin Singletary getting the occasional carry as well.. The Chargers are a difficult matchup, but Skattebo profiles as a low-end fantasy RB2 in Week 4.
Sep 26, 2025 3:20 PM EST
Unsurprisingly, New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. (shoulder) was unable to practice on Wednesday as the team began preparing for the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 4, according to Dan Salomone of Giants.com. Tracy dislocated his shoulder in the Sunday night loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in the first quarter and is expected to miss two to four weeks, so it's only a matter of time before he's ruled out this week. Rookie Cam Skattebo looked good in a lead-back role in Week 3 and will serve as the team's RB1 going forward as the Giants move to rookie first-rounder Jaxson Dart as their starting quarterback. Behind Skattebo, Devin Singletary will be in line for a bigger role as well as the RB2, although he won't have much standalone fantasy appeal. Skattebo should be rostered in all fantasy leagues now and is firmly in flex territory in Week 4 against L.A.
Sep 24, 2025 10:47 PM EST
According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. (shoulder) is expected to miss 2-4 weeks due to a dislocated shoulder. The second-year running back suffered this injury during their Week 3 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday evening. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status, but it appears Tracy will avoid a stint on the injured reserve. During the first three games of the season, Tracy took 22 carries for 68 yards and caught eight of his 13 targets for 54 yards. While he remains idle, managers should expect rookie Cam Skattebo to take the lead in the backfield. Since Week 2, Skattebo has already seen his workload increase, and with Tracy sidelined, he should see the majority of the opportunities.
Sep 23, 2025 8:04 AM EST
New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. (shoulder) suffered a dislocated shoulder in the first half of Sunday night's 22-9 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs and is expected to miss some time, sources told Jordan Raanan of ESPN. Before injuring his right shoulder on a hard hit, Tracy had seven carries for 29 yards against KC. Rookie Cam Skattebo looked good in a lead-back role after Tracy's injury in Week 3 and will now step into a bigger role for however long Tracy is out. Devin Singletary will also see an expanded role as the RB2 heading into a Week 4 tilt against the Los Angeles Chargers. The 25-year-old Tracy deserves to be stashed in all fantasy leagues, but he could return to the RB2 role in the Big Apple if Skattebo runs away with the lead-back role while he's out. Skattebo had 10 carries for 60 yards and a touchdown and also caught six passes for 61 yards on Sunday night.
Sep 22, 2025 12:51 PM EST
New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. (shoulder) will not return to his team's Week 3 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs due to a shoulder injury, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. Tracy left the game in the first half, and he'll finish the night with 29 rushing yards on seven carries and seven receiving yards on two catches. Rookie running back Cam Skattebo figures to take over as the lead back in Tracy's absence, with veteran Devin Singletary working in as well. The full severity of Tracy's injury is not yet known, but he appeared to be in significant pain after landing awkwardly on his shoulder.
Sep 21, 2025 9:50 PM EST
New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. (shoulder) is questionable to return to his team's Week 3 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs due to a shoulder injury, per Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports. The 25-year-old took a hit along the sideline and immediately pointed to his affected shoulder. Tracy Jr. recorded 29 yards on seven carries and seven receiving yards on two catches before getting hurt. If Tracy Jr. is unable to return, rookie running back Cam Skattebo would likely handle the lion's share of backfield snaps for the Giants for the remainder of Week 3.
Sep 21, 2025 9:09 PM EST
New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. (calf) is "good to go" for his team's Week 3 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. Tracy Jr. was limited in practice this week due to a calf issue, but will not carry an injury designation into Sunday. The 25-year-old is off to a slow start this season. Through two games, Tracy Jr. has recorded just 39 rushing yards on 15 carries, although he does have six catches for 47 yards. Tracy Jr. may be in danger of losing the early-down role in New York to rookie running back Cam Skattebo, who had 11 carries for 45 yards and a touchdown in Week 2. Tracy Jr. profiles as an RB4/low-end deep-league flex play in Week 3.
