The New York Giants added their second running back within the past week when they claimed Ryquell Armstead off of waivers after the Jacksonville Jaguars released him.
Armstead has a lot of potential but he’s still somewhat of an unknown given that he’s only played one season and was unable to play in 2020 after contracting COVID-19.
NFL Films analyst Greg Cosell was a guest on “Ross Tucker Football Podcast” and said that Armstead is a “grinder.”
“I think that Armstead, if healthy, and obviously his body get wracked a bit [he missed the 2020 season due to COVID-19] so we don’t know, but if he’s back to what he was at Temple I think he’s your classic, sustaining grinder,” Cosell said on Thursday.
