Giants RB Cam Skattebo got workhorse usage when healthy last year, averaging 16.0 carries and 4.7 targets across Weeks 2 through 7. But that was under the old coaching staff. In his first preseason game under HC John Harbaugh and OC Matt Nagy on Saturday, Skattebo worked in a 3-RB committee. He got the start, but RB Tyrone Tracy replaced him on the third snap. RB Devin Singletary started the second drive before Skattebo and Tracy mixed back in.
2026 Fantasy Football Impact: Tracy Muddies the Picture
Here's how playing time and touches were divvied with QB Jaxson Dart in the preseason opener:
| Cam Skattebo | Tyrone Tracy | Devin Singletary | ||
| Snaps | 5 | 7 | 4 | |
| Routes | 1 | 3 | 1 | |
| Carries | 4 | 2 | 3 | |
| Targets | 0 | 1 | 1 |
Singletary's first-team run makes this look more like preseason tinkering from the Giants. I'd be shocked if he played a significant role when the real games start.
But Tracy's role could be legit, especially in the passing game. The converted WR has caught 74 balls across his first two NFL seasons, although it's worth noting that a blown block got QB Jaxson Dart lit up on Saturday.
We'll see how that impacts playing time going forward. But Skattebo's fantasy value depends heavily on volume, particularly in the passing game and at the goal line.
It's worth noting that The Athletic's Dan Duggan wrote after Saturday's game that Tracy "has been the back in passing situations throughout camp."
Rankings Movement: Skattebo Slips a Bit
We're not altering our entire outlook on New York's backfield based on one preseason game. But there's enough here to shift some projected targets from Skattebo to Tracy.
See where both guys land in the updated RB rankings.
