Giants coach Harbaugh says running backs must earn carries

Giants head coach John Harbaugh told reporters after the team’s recent loss that running back carries are earned and that a player needs to step up to become the primary back. > "One of those guys needs to step up. Somebody needs to step up and be the back. And none of those guys have done that yet," Harbaugh said, adding that he does not favor rotating backs. The coach highlighted Tyrone Tracy’s performance, who scored both of the Giants’ touchdowns last week, as a potential candidate for a larger workload against the Texans. Harbaugh also noted that Najee Harris and Cam Skattebo have seen limited touches, with Harris recording only four carries and Skattebo being benched after fumbling issues. The remarks come as the Giants prepare for Week 7, with the running back depth chart still unsettled.
