EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Stable wouldn’t be the right word to describe the New York Giants backfield this year, or last year for that matter. The Giants have already started three different running backs this season, and all five backs that began the year on their active roster have been in significant roles at one point or another.
It has driven fantasy owners crazy and disgusted Giants fans craving a more consistent running game. It has also made life difficult for the Giants, who are 31st in the NFL in rushing with an average of 74.
