After signing Devin Singletary as their lead running back to replace Saquon Barkley, there is a belief that the New York Giants would like to add another veteran on a low-cost free agent to pair with Singletary.
ESPN’s Bill Barnwell thinks Ezekiell Elliott would fit that role nicely, naming the Giants as Elliott’s best fit in free agency. Barnwell wrote:
Why he should be signed: Elliott’s skill set as a pass-blocker and interior runner is still valuable for teams in a reserve role. While the 2016 top-five pick has consistently posted miserable numbers running outside over the past few seasons, he still managed to be about league-average on his carries between the tackles last season in terms of rush yards over expectation.
