Running back Andre Brown was given a package of plays in practice today but how the carries will be split among the team’s four running backs on Sunday against the Raiders has yet to be decided.

Brown, who suffered a second fracture of his left fibula in the final preseason game at New England, and veteran Brandon Jacobs practiced today, as did Peyton Hillis and rookie Michael Cox. Running back David Wilson’s injured neck was re-examined today, coach Tom Coughlin said.

“The coaches just told me to be ready,” said Brown, who averaged 5.3 yards per carry and scored eight touchdowns last season before suffered a fractured left fibula in a Nov. 25 game against Green Bay.

Fantasy Impact: 

Brown said he will get a special package of plays and the team wants to ease him back into football shape. With Wilson not likely back this week, Brown could split time with Jacobs and Hillis, but the division of carries is anyone's guess. Brown's worth adding but is shaping up to be a risky play this week.

Andre Brown, a fourth-round pick by the Giants in 2009, will join newcomer Peyton Hillis, who has carried the load the past two weeks, veteran Brandon Jacobs and rookie Michael Cox in a crowded backfield. Wilson (neck) is scheduled to be re-evaluated early next week.

"Andre is definitely going to fit in," Giants running back coach Jerald Ingram said. "He’s very athletic. He catches the ball well out of the backfield. He can run the ball. He has good speed.

"He’s that multi-purpose back that can do a lot of things on first, second and third downs where the other two guys (Hillis and Jacobs) are big, strong, powerful, downhill guys."

Fantasy Impact: 

As the story points out, once Brown is activated, the Giants will have to make a roster move. Among their options are releasing Jacobs or placing Wilson on injured reserve, ending his season. They could release another player as well. Brown is worth picking up if he's on your wire.

Giants RB Andre Brown says he feels "great," is, "ready to go," and expects to play in two weeks against the Raiders.

Fantasy Impact: 

The Giants have a bye in Week 9. David Wilson has a chance to return Week 10 as well. It all adds up to a pretty crowded backfield if you factor in Peyton Hillis, Brandon Jacobs and Michael Cox who have carried the load while Wilson and Brown have been out.

Less than a week after getting picked up off the scrap heap, Giants running back Peyton Hillis was thrust into the spotlight on Monday night in front of a national television audience for his Roy Hobbs moment, and managed to give the Giants as much as they could ask for from a guy who came close to accepting that his career was over.

Now the former Madden cover guy is in line for another heavy load Sunday in Philadelphia as Brandon Jacobs missed practice again Friday with a hamstring injury and is doubtful to play against the Eagles, leaving Hillis and seventh-round rookie Michael Cox, who also saw his first action of the season Monday, as the only healthy tailbacks.

Fantasy Impact: 

Hillis is expected to carry the load again against an Eagles defense that is showing signs of improvement. Still, he's not a bad play if you're in a bind as the matchup is considered favorable. We have him ranked 27th among our backs which is the low-end RB3 or flex range.
