Tyrone Tracy Jr.

Tracy's NFL career could be much better than his collegiate one when it's all said and done. Last year's tackle-breaking metrics should raise your eyebrows, especially for a player still acclimating to the position. Tracy ranked fourth in yards after contact per attempt and fifth in elusive rating (per PFF). Purdue offered him the most vanilla offensive role possible in the passing game with his receiver background. I expect the Giants to rectify that when he does garner snaps. Tracy only has to unseat Eric Gray to earn the RB2 role for the Giants. Gray didn't do anything to wow the team last year with his 2.8 yards per carry and 1.53 yards after contact per attempt (per Fantasy Points Data). Devin Singletary looks like the team's workhorse, but if he goes down, Tracy could take over three-down duties. He's one of the best handcuff options in drafts.

Tyrone Tracy Jr. spent a good portion of the 11-on-11 drills working with the first-team on Tuesday.

Fantasy Impact

The rookie is pushing to play a role on passing downs this season. He'll be a player to monitor to see if he can hold up in pass protection. Devin Singletary should remain the lead back on early downs to open the season.
