New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. is reportedly on the roster bubble ahead of the team's 53-man cutdown on August 30. After recording 1,000 scrimmage yards in his first two seasons, Tracy has faced stiff competition from running backs Cam Skattebo, Devin Singletary, and newly signed Najee Harris. His preseason performance has been underwhelming, with a low overall PFF grade and a notable fumble. The dynamics within the Giants' backfield are changing, and Tracy could see his prominent role diminish if the team opts to retain four running backs.
