ESPN’s Jordan Raanan reports the Giants inquired about Bijan Robinson’s availability before the NFL’s trade deadline.

“They were certainly big game hunting,” Raanan said. Though the thought of the Falcons parting ways with the centerpiece of their offense sounds ridiculous, it’s clear John Harbaugh and the Giants see themselves as a postseason team that won’t be content with a playoff berth. The inquiry on Bijan speaks to the Giants’ ongoing skepticism of Cam Skattebo as a true lead back. The team has done everything they can to prevent Skattebo from taking on a big backfield workload. In Week 10 against the Commanders, with a flurry of backfield injuries and Devin Singletary coming off one of the worst running back performances in NFL history, the Giants might have no choice but to feed Skattebo, who should be started in all 12-team leagues.
