Devontae Booker rushed eight times for 14 yards in the Giants’ Week 18 loss to Washington, adding two receptions for 12 additional yards.
A warm body behind Saquon Barkley, Booker started four games in Barkley’s absence and took on bigger workloads down the stretch as the G-Men tried to close their eyes and hide their passing “attack.” Booker was actually more efficient than Barkley on both a per-rush and per-catch basis this season, but we would not read too much into that in this talent-bereft offense. Four months shy of his 30th birthday, Booker is signed cheaply for 2022. Even if the Giants make changes at coach and general manager, he could be kept around for his $2 million salary.
