Chris Thompson
Chris Thompson has seen his production dwindle over the last four seasons, and as he approaches the age of 30, that may scare some people off. That’s understandable for a team seeking a starter, but not necessarily for a team seeking a spell back.
Thompson never really took off in Washington, but served as a quality backup, averaging just under 5.0 yards per carry on his career, while making a genuine difference in the passing game.
As far as sheer backups go, Thompson is a guy that might make sense for the Giants. His salary demands are likely to be minimal, his expectations would be minimal and he’s already filled a backup role nicely.
