Dion Lewis was the backup to the NFL’s leading rusher in 2019.
He and the Giants wouldn’t mind if he can be that again in 2020, only wearing their uniform.
The Giants signed the 29-year-old running back, who was released by the Titans this offseason, to do for Saquon Barkley what he did for Derrick Henry. In other words: Make Barkley better, make the team better, and do it while being on the field as little as possible.
