Orleans Darkwa hopes Giants will include him in RB mix

When they were working out together in Miami this offseason, Orleans Darkwa greeted Rashad Jennings every day with the same message:

"Look, I'm coming for you," the second-year running back would tell his veteran teammate at the same position.

On Friday night, he may have closed the gap a bit.

Darkwa was one of the few rays of production for the Giants' offense in the preseason opener against the Bengals. He ran for 52 yards on nine carries, accounting for nearly half of the 106 rushing yards the team had on just about one-third of their 24 carries.
