At the conclusion of the NFL Draft, fans knew the New York Giants were stacked at the running back position with rookie Saquon Barkley, second-year running back Wayne Gallman and veteran Jonathan Stewart all employed.
But as we learned in OTAs and minicamp, the Giants backfield is one of their deepest and most talented positions due to young Jalen Simmons and Robert Martin.
Both Simmons and Martin are strong runners that can catch passes coming out of the backfield which is ideal for Pat Shurmur’s offense because he’ll have running backs lined up all over the field.
