Wayne Gallman

The Giants once believed to have a promising future with running back Wayne Gallman. Gallman looked prepared to step into a starting role before the Giants drafted Saquon Barkley. Many expected Gallman to be an excellent backup for Saquon, but so far, Wayne has not lived up to the hype.

Towards the end of the 2019 season, Gallman was relegated to the third-string. Javorius â€œBuckâ€ Allen became Barkley’s backup running back by the end of the year and Gallman was even a healthy scratch for some contests. This could put Gallman’s roster spot in jeopardy heading into the 2020 season.
