Paul Perkins Getting Second-Team Reps
5 years agoThe New York Giants know who their starting running back is because Saquon Barkley is on the team's roster, but there appears to be a surprise candidate for the number-two job appearing during offseason workouts as Paul Perkins has been getting second-team reps. Perkins missed all of last season and has struggled in the instances where the Giants have given him snaps, so him supplanting Wayne Gallman as the first back off the bench would be an unexpected development. As long as Barkley is healthy, Perkins won't see the field enough to be fantasy relevant, though, and his past performance doesn't indicate that he's worth stashing as a handcuff option.
