For the fourth time this season, running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. has been nominated for the Pepsi Zero Sugar Rookie of the Week.
Tracy and wide receiver Malik Nabers have each been nominated for the award four times through the first 10 weeks of the season.
The 24-year-old running back carried the ball 18 times for 103 yards, good for an average of 5.7 yards per carry, and a touchdown in Munich. However, he did lose a fumble on the first play of overtime that turned out to be costly for the Giants.
Tracy finished the game with three runs of 10+ yards, including his impressive 32-yard touchdown run. The rookie back proved difficult to tackle as he matched his season-high with five missed tackles forced, while setting a new high mark with 4.28 yards after contact per attempt.
Tracy has now topped 100 yards from scrimmage in four of six games since taking over as the Giants' lead running back, including three outings with over 100 yards on the ground.
He is averaging 18.2 total touches and 98.7 total yards per game during that span while registering 22 total missed tackles forced.
Despite playing only limited snaps in the first four games, Tracy ranks 20th in the NFL with his 545 rushing yards, which also leads all rookies. His 5.1 yards per carry on the season is tied for 8th in the NFL among players with 60 or more rush attempts.
The other players nominated for the Week 10 Pepsi Rookie of the Week include:
- Broncos QB Bo Nix - Completed 22 of 30 passes (73.3 percent) for 215 yards and two touchdowns for a 115.3 passer rating
- Buccaneers RB Bucky Irving - 87 total scrimmage yards (73 rushing, 14 receiving) and one rushing touchdown
