BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 25% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: New York Giants rookie running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. led the way in their Week 5 victory over the Seattle Seahawks by running for 129 yards on 18 carries. He added one yard off one reception.
With Devin Singletary (groin) sidelined, the fifth-round rookie showed that he is more than capable of seeing the majority of work in the New York backfield.

Although, when Singletary was on the field, Tracy was in a reserve role and averaged just three carries across the first four weeks. However, given his breakout performance, Tracy may have earned a more stable role in this offense and could become a viable flex option going forward.
For now, the Purdue product remains a high-end handcuff and should added in all standard 12-team formats.
