Giants RB Cam Skattebo indicated his hamstring was OK after Sunday’s win over the Texans, and the team has its Week 8 bye to recover. With RB Tyrone Tracy Jr.’s surprise placement on IR on Tuesday, the beat writer’s view is to ‘wait and see where he’s at’ when the Giants return to practice next week; Skattebo missed chunks of time last offseason with a hamstring injury. The backfield was shaping up as an even split before Tracy left with a hamstring injury in the second quarter, with Skattebo at 14 snaps to Tracy’s 11 at that point. As the game progressed, RB Devin Singletary took over as the third-down back while mixing in on early downs.
