The New York Giants released their final injury report Friday, and while they will be without their starting kicker and punter, they received good news.
Rookie running back Tyrone Tracy cleared concussion protocol and will play against the Washington Commanders on Sunday. Tracy suffered a concussion in New York’s loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Before leaving the game, Tracy rushed for 145 yards and a touchdown against Pittsburgh’s stout defense.
Tracy took over as New York’s top running back in a Week 5 win at Seattle, where he rushed for 129 yards. In the last four games, Tracy has rushed for 347 yards and two touchdowns. A fifth-round pick in the 2024 NFL draft from Purdue, Tracy began his career at Iowa as a wide receiver. He transferred to Purdue before the 2022 season and later transitioned to running back.
The Commanders are 25th in run defense, so Tracy could be in store for a big game. Keep in mind that Devin Singletary rushed for 95 yards against Washington in Week 2. Tracy played in Week 2 but had just one carry for two yards.
