Giants general manager Joe Schoen announced the move during a bye-week press conference, stating Tracy is down four games and the injury is not season-ending.
Tracy, a 2024 fifth-round draft pick, contributed over 1,000 yards of total offense in each of his first two seasons with the team.
In 2026, Tracy has seen a reduced role, accumulating 109 yards of total offense and 3 touchdowns through the first seven games of the season.
