2020 Giants training camp preview: Running backs

The New York Giants will be led by Saquon Barkley in 2020, but what does the team have as far as running back depth behind him?

Jon Hilliman

The Giants signed Jon Hilliman, a New Jersey native out of Rutgers, following the 2019 NFL Draft and he managed to stick.

Not only did Hilliman stick, but there were a few instances where the 24-year-old flashed and left fans wondering what the future held. Unfortunately, his role wasn’t significant and he ended his rookie campaign with just 91 yards on 30 carries.

In 2020, Hilliman will not only compete with Gallman for a spot on the roster, but a few undrafted free agents such as Javon Leake, who we will touch on momentarily.

In order to stick under Joe Judge, Hilliman will need to show improvement as both a pass protector and a receiver out of the backfield. He’ll also need to supply some production on special teams.
