The New York Giants haven’t had a feature back since the days of Tiki Barber – yes, it’s been that long.
For a short period, the trio of Derrick Ward, Brandon Jacobs, and Ahmad Bradshaw ran the show in the Giants backfield.
After one standout season, Ward was off to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, leaving Bradshaw and Jacobs as the team’s running back duo for some time, but neither back ever had it in them to be a “feature back” in Eli Manning’s offense.
Backs like Andre Brown, Andrew Williams, and Rashad Jennings tried to make a dent in the Giants rushing attack, only to fall flat on their face.
