"EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. suffered a dislocated right shoulder on a hard hit near the sideline on Sunday night and is expected to miss some time, multiple sources told ESPN. Tracy went down in pain when he was sandwiched by a pair of Kansas City Chiefs defenders on the second play of the second quarter. He immediately tapped his right arm to indicate the problem to the attending medical staff."
"Without Tracy, rookie running back Cam Skattebo handled a majority of the workload. He outsnapped veteran Devin Singletary 32 to 9 after Tracy's injury. Skattebo had 121 total yards on 16 touches against the Chiefs. The fourth-round pick out of Arizona State is expected to be given a bigger workload in Tracy's absence. Tracy, a fifth-round pick last year out of Iowa, was coming off a strong rookie season where he rushed for 839 yards and five touchdowns. He averaged a healthy 4.4 yards per carry."
""It's tough when you see a guy like Tracy, one of your star running backs, go down with a shoulder on the sideline," quarterback Russell Wilson said after the 22-9 loss. "Had a good couple runs, couple of good plays. So I think that was tough for us, but I thought we continued to battle throughout.""
