Giants running back Tyrone Tracy faces roster cut, may need special teams role

The New York Giants unveiled a revised preseason depth chart that moves running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. out of the starting position, installing Cam Skattebo as the primary back and placing Najee Harris, Devin Singletary and Tracy as backups. Tracy's demotion follows a blown blitz that resulted in a sack and a fumble on the 12-yard line in recent games. Offensive coordinator Matt Nagy acknowledged the mistakes but emphasized the need for Tracy to bounce back, noting the team's continued confidence in him.

The arrival of free-agent Najee Harris, returning from an Achilles injury, intensifies the competition. Special-teams coordinator Chris Horton indicated that Tracy could secure his roster place by contributing on kick returns and other special-teams duties. The Giants' final preseason matchup against the Jets will likely determine Tracy's chances.
