1. Cam Skattebo is the Giants' new lead back
Skattebo led the New York Giants in offensive snaps in the second half.
The Giants drafted Skattebo in the fourth round. There was an instant possibility he could overtake Tyrone Tracy as the starter, given Tracy’s slow end of the 2024 season. That momentum for Skattebo stalled when he missed significant time during training camp, including the first two preseason games. Tracy played over 70% of New York's offensive snaps in the first game, including over 90% of third downs and 80% of the short-yardage situations. Skattebo only played eight snaps, while Devin Singletary played 10.
Skattebo’s playing time was notably larger in the first half this week. Tracy and Skattebo were even on early downs and in short-yardage situations. Tracy had a slight lead over Skattebo due to third-down plays. However, in the second half and overtime, Skattebo played 19 of 31 snaps compared to Tracy's 11 and Singletary's two. By the end of the game, Skattebo was even with Tracy on both late downs and two-minute drill situations. Skattebo had a clear lead on early downs, while Tracy’s only win was in two-minute drill situations.
It will be difficult to trust either running back, given the evolving usage and the fact that they are playing a Chiefs team that is still looking for its first win of the season. Both running backs need to remain on fantasy rosters for now. However, it looks like we could already be at a point where Skattebo is a borderline fantasy starter, and Tracy shouldn’t be considered in fantasy starting lineups. We will need to see several weeks of Skattebo as the lead back before you should consider dropping Tracy.
