NY Giants: Full Position Breakdown and Depth Chart Analysis at Running Back

Last season, the New York Giants running game finished 23rd in the NFL, averaging 100.1 yards per game.

In fact, it’s been quite a while since the Giants have had a top-10 rushing unit, the last time being in the 2010 season.

That year, they finished sixth in the league with an average of 137.5 yards per game, this thanks to the power running tandem of Ahmad Bradshaw (276 carries for 1,235 yards) and Brandon Jacobs (147 carries for 823 yards).

There are many reasons for the Giants poor rushing performance from last year—injuries, the offensive line and inexperience all were factors.
