The New York Giants’ future looks bright despite a rough 4-13 season.
The franchise brought in a Super Bowl-winning coach in John Harbaugh, has a high-upside quarterback in Jaxson Dart, and possesses a contact-inviting running back in Cam Skattebo. Per NJ.com’s Darryl Slater, things could get even better for the Giants by signing a former Philadelphia Eagles star RB.
“Harbaugh was interested in Kenneth Walker and Jeremiyah Love this offseason, but he ultimately landed neither,” Slater wrote Monday. “So it’s still Cam Skattebo and Tyrone Tracy atop the Giants’ backfield pecking order.”
“(Najee)Harris would be an intriguing addition. He briefly played for Harbaugh’s brother Jim with the Chargers last season before tearing his Achilles tendon in Week 3. But it’s not like he’s that old. He turned 28 in March. Similarly, (Miles) Sanders and (Antonio) Gibson are both coming off knee injuries, but still seemingly have some juice left.”
