Giants rookie RB Tyrone Tracy Jr. fumbles away the game despite otherwise elite performance

It was a heartbreaking sight to witness in Munich during a ground and pound match between the New York Giants and the Carolina Panthers. Both Chuba Hubbard and Tyrone Tracy Jr. were the features of their respective offenses and both took over the game when given the opportunity. Things seemed to be swinging the way of the Giants in overtime until their feature player made a costly mistake that ultimately lost New York the game.

This was a harsh reality check for the young rookie who has been a bit of a phenom for the Giants as of late, and while you hate to see it for a young player like him, it will be an opportunity to grow in the immediate future. Aside from that rather glaring mistake however, Tracy was a monster for the Giants, garnering 103 yards and a touchdown on just 18 carries. Tracy was clearly the best offensive player in the Giants’ arsenal and was the reason they even got to overtime in the first place.

Despite Tracy’s hiccup he will almost certainly maintain his status as the feature back for a desperate New York Giants team. With the offense searching for any answers, Tracy has been an absolute stud and bright spot given he was drafted in day 3 of the 2024 NFL Draft. Tracy will have a chance to make up for the error through the rest of the season as he looks to be one of the finalists for ‘Offensive Rookie of the Year’ if he can stay on course in this offense.
