Giants look deep at running back

Saquon Barkley and Dion Lewis are obviously talented backs at the top of the Giants’ depth chart, but even behind them, there’s a little something brewing.

Wayne Gallman has looked solid in camp and rookie Javone Leake is beginning to flash.

In particular, Leake looked like a legitimate weapon during Friday’s scrimmage. He broke off a big run, caught a few passes and showed off his impressive quickness.

“He’s a guy who’s really coming on right now. He’s feeling more comfortable within the system and scheme. He’s doing a good job of taking coaching points from Burton (Burns) to the field. He’s a guy that’s very in-tune at meetings, paying attention. You can see that with him. He’s improved on a daily basis,” Judge said of Leake.
