As things stand, Tyrone Tracy Jr. is listed as questionable to face the Falcons on Sunday. However, there are signs that the Giants running back will suit up for the Week 16 game.

Tracy was a limited participant in practice Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Hence, there is an expectation that he will play on Sunday.

The Giants picked Tracy in the fifth round of this year's NFL draft. The RB began his college career with the Iowa Hawkeyes where he played for four seasons. Tracy then transferred to Purdue in 2022 and played for one year with the Boilermakers.

How has Tyrone Tracy Jr. fared this season?

Tracy has been one of the few bright sparks in the Giants' offense this season. The running back has posted 695 yards and five touchdowns on 151 carries. He has also contributed 220 yards on 30 receptions across 14 games.
