Tyrone Tracy Jr.'s Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. faces a tough matchup in Week 8 against a formidable Steelers rush defense on Monday Night Football. Tracy has averaged 7.7 fantasy points per game with 231 rushing yards, one touchdown, and a 42.4% timeshare. Despite being the lead back in Week 7, he managed only 23 rushing yards and nine receiving yards in a 28-3 loss to the Eagles. The Steelers boast the NFL's second-ranked rushing defense, allowing just 81.1 yards per game and only three rushing touchdowns all season. With Pittsburgh's eighth-best defense against fantasy RBs, Tracy may struggle to find openings, making him a risky play in fantasy formats this week.

New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. had a modest performance in Sunday's 28-3 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Tracy led the team in carries with six, totaling 23 rushing yards at a 3.8-yard average, with his longest run going for eight yards. In the passing game, he added three receptions for just nine yards but failed to find the end zone, finishing the day with 4.7 fantasy points. With Devin Singletary back in the lineup, Tracy still handled most of the rushing work but faces a challenging Week 8 matchup against Pittsburgh.

Despite New York Giants running back Devin Singletary (groin) returning from a two-game absence in Week 7 against the division-rival Philadelphia Eagles, rookie Tyrone Tracy Jr. will still see significant playing time on Sunday. "He's earned it," head coach Brian Daboll said. "He's done a good job. So he'll get plenty of playing time." Daboll said that Tracy, Singletary and Eric Gray will all play, but the Giants plan to keep a close eye on Singletary to see how he's doing after coming off his groin ailment. It means the G-Men will likely ease Singletary back into action, making him a shaky RB3/flex option in his return against the Eagles. In the two games that Singletary missed, Tracy was much more electric and explosive than Singletary, carrying the ball 35 times for 179 yards and a score while catching seven passes for 58 yards. He's the better upside flex play this weekend than Singletary.

In the opinion of the North Jersey Bergen Record's Art Stapleton, New York Giants running back Devin Singletary (groin) will serve in the role that Eric Gray had in the Week 6 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday night when he returns from his injury. Stapleton thinks rookie Tyrone Tracy Jr. will continue on as the lead back after another impressive performance against Cincy with 17 carries for 50 yards and a touchdown while adding six catches for 57 yards. Tracy had 129 rushing yards against Seattle last week and has earned a bigger role in the backfield. Stapleton thinks Singletary's snap percentage will drop from something like 70% to 30% if he's active in Week 7 against the division-rival Philadelphia Eagles. The 24-year-old Tracy, a former receiver in college, looks electric with the ball in his hands and will be a top waiver-wire priority this week. Tracy is rostered in less than half of Yahoo leagues.

New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. provided a spark in Sunday's 17-7 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals, contributing both as a rusher and a receiver. Tracy hauled in six receptions for 57 yards while adding 50 yards on the ground, including a one-yard scamper for his lone rushing touchdown. His versatility was key, but his 2.9 yards per carry highlights some inefficiency in the running game. Despite not finding the end zone as a receiver, Tracy's dual-threat performance netted 19.7 fantasy points, making him an intriguing flex option for fantasy managers with Devin Singletary injured.
