ANALYSIS: New York Giants freshman running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. had his second big game in relief of starter Devin Singletary (groin), who wasn't able to suit up for a second consecutive week. Tracy exploited a Cincinnati Bengals defense that's struggled against running backs this year to the tune of 22.70 PPR fantasy points.

The rookie was inefficient on the ground, averaging just 2.9 yards per carry, but showed impressive explosiveness as a receiving back. While the return of Singletary will cap his upside, it's likely he's earned a larger role, and we could see the Giants' backfield approach become more of a committee, with interesting upside for Tracy.
He shouldn't be left on waivers, and he's already been picked up in the majority of leagues. He probably won't become an every-week starter yet, but if the lead back can't go, he's worth starting in all leagues due to his workhorse role.
