8/06/25 | How Can NY Giants Unlock More from RB Tyrone Tracy Jr.?. The New York Giants seem to have struck gold with their fifth-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, running back Tyrone Tracy Jr, who paid immediate dividends for the team. Tracy's arrival ended what seemed to be a streak of Day 3 running backs who struggled to gain traction, including former Tennessee and Oklahoma running back Eric Gray in the fifth round of the 2023 draft, and Gary Brightwell, a 2021 sixth-rounder. Tracy, a converted running back from receiver, only recorded 146 carries in six seasons of college football. Source: https://www.si.com/nfl/giants/big-blue-plus/how-ca... |
8/04/25 | New York Giants lob Hail Mary by adding veteran to help solve growing injury problem during training camp. The New York Giants' running back room desperately needed to add bodies after rookie Cam Skattebo suffered an apparent injury during Friday's practice.

7/22/25 | NY Giants LT Andrew Thomas, RB Eric Gray Placed on Active/PUP. New York Giants left tackle Andrew Thomas, who is recovering from season-ending lis franc surgery, will start the 2025 training camp on the Active/Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list. Thomas was held out of the spring practices, rarely seen on the practice field during those times when the media was allowed in the building. Earlier this month, Thomas offered a little bit of hope that he'd be ready for camp when he made a guest appearance at a New York Yankees game to throw out the ceremonial first pitch. The Giants need Thomas, who raised some concern when he expressed hope of being ready for Week 1, but wouldn't commit, for the coming season.

6/12/25 | New York Giants 2025 Training Camp Preview: RB Eric Gray. Many New York Giants fans expected running back Eric Gray to take the next step in 2024 following the departure of star running back Saquon Barkley to free agency, but that never happened. With the signing of Devin Singletary in free agency last offseason, as well as the emergence of rookie Tyrone Tracy Jr, Gray was never able to crack the rotation consistently. Entering Year 3, Gray's runner-receiver versatility is still valuable, but his ball security was a massive issue in 2024. With Cam Skattebo having been added and Ihmir Smith-Marsette having taken on the return specialist role, is this the end of Gray's time with the Giants?

12/05/24 | How Giants Are Addressing Kickoff Returner Eric Gray's Ball Security Issues. New York Giants kickoff returner Eric Gray won't get a lot of credit owed to him, but the second-year running back who has been the team's primary kickoff returner has improved significantly in the role from a year ago. Gray averaged 58 yards in four kickoff returns last season, missing part of the year while on injured reserve. This year, Gray is up to 517 yards (fourth most in the league) on 20 kickoff returns (third most). Source: https://www.si.com/nfl/giants/big-blue-plus/how-gi... |

10/06/24 | Rayshawn Jenkins' 102-yard fumble return breaks Seahawks record. In the moment, it felt like a gift that might propel the Seahawks to an even bigger reward a few hours later. Instead, Rayshawn Jenkins' 102-yard fumble return for a touchdown in the first quarter served as only a happy footnote during what was otherwise a day of disturbing football by the Seahawks in a 29-20 loss to the New York Giants. Jenkins found the ball on the ground after teammate Jerome Baker hit New York running back Eric Gray hard as Gray tried to extend the ball into the end zone on a fourth-and-goal at the 1-yard line. The ball fell at the feet of Jenkins, who needed only to pick it up and take off running, with most of the Giants either not noticing that he had the ball, or thinking that the play was dead — or that they had scored a touchdown.

9/15/24 | 3 keys to a Giants win over the Washington Commanders in Week 2. UNLOCK TYRONE TRACY JR. Brian Daboll needs to establish a running game, and rookie Tyrone Tracy Jr. could be the player to elevate it in this NFC East showdown. Tracy had a strong camp. He is shifty and strong. And he falls forward for extra yardage. But Eric Gray still received a carry before him in Week 1. That must change against Washington so that Daniel Jones and the offense can try to take control early. TAKE AN EARLY LEAD Baker Mayfield's 24-of-30 passing for 289 yards and four TDs for Tampa Bay against Washington's defense in Week 1 bodes well for Jones to bounce back. But first, Jones and the Giants need to gain confidence with an early touchdown. The Giants and Pittsburgh Steelers (six Source: https://www.nydailynews.com/2024/09/15/3-keys-gian... |

8/03/24 | Eric Gray is Making a Case for a Larger Role in Giants' Rushing Offense. New York Giants Training Camp Preview: RB Eric Gray New York Giants running back Eric Gray was a non-factor offensively in 2023, partly due to injuries that landed him on IR for part of the season and partly due to the team's insistence on turning him into their kickoff returner, a role for which he was not best suited. With his rocky rookie season behind him, Gray is looking to rise from the ashes to show that he can be a legitimate contributor in the Giants' running backs rotation. So far, so good. Gray, who told New York Giants On SI that he attacked his offseason training hard, has ripped off some long runs in the padded practices this week. One in particular was a long run on counter where Source: https://www.wtnh.com/sports/sports-illustrated/are... |
