A truncated offseason was compounded by a season-ending Saquon Barkley injury to put the New York Giants 2020 rushing attack, under the leadership of Jason Garrett, in a precarious situation. Former Giants head coach Pat Shurmur was fired after the 2019 season, and his offense consisted of mostly inside zone runs, with their predominant gap run being a backside guard pull to the 5 or 6 holes.
The Garrett rushing attack was a bit more diverse. According to thekneeldown.com, a site that aggregates team collective statistics, the Giants ran inside zone rushing plays more than 150 times under Shurmur; the next closest run call was man blocking concepts just more than 50 times.
