The Giants signed RB Najee Harris “under the premise that he's going to be a significant contributor,” ESPN’s Jordan Raanan writes in a detailed look at this suddenly crowded backfield. Ranaan adds that RB Cam Skattebo is still the “top option” but that RB Tyrone Tracy has been a “regular” with the first-team offense in camp and that RB Devin Singletary “shouldn’t be counted out.”

The Giants are signing Najee Harris to a one-year deal, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Nearly 11 months after tearing his achilles, Harris is joining a backfield with Cam Skattebo, who’s coming off a major injury of his own.

Giants RB Cam Skattebo got workhorse usage when healthy last year, averaging 16.0 carries and 4.7 targets across Weeks 2 through 7. But that was under the old coaching staff. In his first preseason game under HC John Harbaugh and OC Matt Nagy on Saturday, Skattebo worked in a 3-RB committee. He got the start, but RB Tyrone Tracy replaced him on the third snap. RB Devin Singletary started the second drive before Skattebo and Tracy mixed back in.

Giants RB Cam Skattebo said on a recent appearance on the Rich Eisen Show that he's running at about 75% as he works back from his right leg and ankle injuries. "I can get away from like a baby hippo, maybe," Skattebo added. "That's about it. But, yeah, a little bit over a jog. Just kind of striding out, not exploding yet and getting into that part of the game, but the jog and the striding." Skattebo expects to be back to 100% in "about a month" and ready to go for training camp.

The Giants are hiring Matt Nagy as their OC, according to multiple reports. Todd Monken was reportedly HC John Harbaugh's top choice for the job. But, like Harbaugh, Nagy has strong ties to Andy Reid. Nagy started his coaching career under Reid in Philadelphia and spent the past four seasons with Reid in Kansas City, serving as OC for the last three.

The Giants are finalizing a deal to hire John Harbaugh as their new HC. It's a five-year deal that will make Harbaugh one of the league's highest-paid coaches, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Harbaugh is coming off an 18-year run with the Ravens, winning 61.4% of his regular season games and Super Bowl 47. It's a strong hire for New York. But Harbaugh worked his way up through the ranks as a special teams coach. That makes the rest of his offensive staff key to figuring out what this Giants attack will look like going forward. The Athletic's Dianna Russini reports that former Ravens OC Todd Monken is expected to join Harbaugh in New York, although it's unclear if he'll hold the same title. We'll keep you updated on how this Giants staff comes together -- and what it means for QB Jaxson Dart, WR Malik Nabers, and the rest of the offense.

Giants RB Cam Skattebo said his goal is to be back on the field for training camp. He's working back from a right tibia fracture, ruptured deltoid ligament, and dislocated ankle suffered in the October 26 game against the Eagles. He's resumed jogging and said his rehab is on track.

Giants RB Cam Skattebo suffered a dislocated ankle, fractured fibula, and ruptured deltoid ligament in the Week 8 loss to the Eagles, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Skattebo had successful surgery that night, and the team expects him to be ready for the offseason program, per Rapoport. This was a significant injury, but it sounds like Skattebo will have no issue getting cleared for Week 1. He remains a solid buy for rebuilding dynasty teams.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport confirms that Giants RB Cam Skattebo will miss the rest of the season with a dislocated ankle. Skattebo underwent surgery on Sunday night at a Philadelphia-area hospital. "If all is good and clean and the surgery went as well as everyone believes, he should be back with no issues for next year," Rapoport adds. "It's a gruesome injury, but the recovery is actually not as bad."

Giants RB Cam Skattebo suffered a gruesome right ankle injury in the second quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Eagles. This looked like a season-ender, but we'll keep you updated on the rookie's status. RB Tyrone Tracy will take over as New York's lead back, with Devin Singletary as the No. 2.

Update: Skattebo has a dislocated ankle and was taken to a hospital for further evaluation, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Giants RB Cam Skattebo racked up 94 total yards in Sunday’s close loss to Denver. He added his first career receiving TD on a designed screen.

Giants RB Cam Skattebo punched in three rushing TDs in Thursday night's upset win over the Eagles. The scores came from 4, 1, and 1 yards out -- and all showcased Skattebo's trademark bruising running style. The rookie ran with his usual reckless abandon all night, finishing with 98 yards on 19 totes (5.2 YPC). Skattebo had five carries and 50 yards on the Giants' 6-minute, 50-second drive to ice the game at the end of the fourth quarter.

Giants RB Tyrone Tracy (shoulder) is off the final injury report and will play vs. the Eagles on Thursday night. He was seemingly losing the lead job to RB Cam Skattebo before going down in Week 3, and we're expecting Tracy to return as the clear No. 2 RB. He shouldn't be in Week 6 fantasy lineups, but his return adds some risk to Skattebo's profile.

Giants RB Tyrone Tracy (shoulder) was limited in Tuesday's practice. HC Brian Daboll said afterward that he's "optimistic" that Tracy will be back for Thursday night's game vs. the Eagles. Tracy was losing the lead job to RB Cam Skattebo even before going down in Week 3, and we're expecting him to return as the clear No. 2 RB. But he could siphon at least a few touches from Skattebo.
