The New York Giants’ breakout player is ... fullback Elijhaa Penny?

A fullback as a breakout player? A fullback? That’s what the New York Giants have in Elijhaa Penny, if you believe SB Nation’s Stephen White.

A former NFL player and contributor to SB Nation’s NFL page, White has ben tasked with naming potential breakout players for each of the NFL’s 32 teams. I was surprised by White’s choice of Penny, plucked off the Arizona Cardinals practice squad by the Giants before Week 3 of the 2018 season.

A tailback in college, Penny converted to fullback in the NFL.
