Giants Running Back Hosting Local Camp

The New York Giants may be building something pretty exciting for the future — and Capital Region kids are about to get a firsthand look at one of their rising stars.

With buzz growing around rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart, the return of electrifying wide receiver Malik Nabers, and the hard-nosed running style of Cam Skattebo, there’s real optimism brewing for Big Blue.

But when injuries hit last season, another name stepped up in a big way: running back Tyrone Tracy Jr.

Now, the Giants’ emerging playmaker is bringing his talent and energy straight to the Capital Region.

Open to Kids 6-16

Tracy Jr., who had over 1000 total yards and 4 touchdowns for Big Blue this past season, will host a Youth Football Camp at Shenendehowa High School in Clifton Park on Sunday, July 13, from 3 to 7 p.m.

It's a chance for local kids to learn from an NFL running back who knows what it takes to rise to the moment.

Spots are Limited

Each participant, according to organizers,  will also receive a team photo with Tracy Jr. (emailed after the event), a limited-edition camp T-shirt, and possible sponsor giveaways.

Spots are limited and expected to fill quickly, especially with the Giants' excitement building again. For young football fans in the Capital Region, this is a rare chance to learn from one of the G-Men's most reliable rising stars — right in their own backyard.
